Departure


As the lips that once told me they loved me Claim to no longer care I try to find a way to stop my tears As they fall freely to the floor As the eyes that once looked deeply into mine Will no longer look my way I wonder if there was ever a time When those eyes truly cared As the arms that kept me out of harms way Now just push me away I wonder why I tried so hard And why I ever bothered to love you
