I told myself I wouldn't cry
I'd talk to her and be fine
I wouldn't feel bad
When I lied to stop talking

Now I'm crying from the pain
A mothers love
Should be forever, yet hers
Hers ran away from me

I promised I wouldn't hurt
Wouldn't feel the pain
From not hearing your voice
From not seeing you

Now I'm hurting, bent over
Wondering what happened
You and me, me and you
Why does it hurt so bad

I swore I wouldn't want it
I wouldn't want to be with you
I wouldn't wish for more
I wouldn't miss you so much

Now I'm scared again
Not because I love someone
Because it's you I love
I don't want to hurt again

I told myself I wouldn't cry
Now it seems
That's all I'm able to do
Too tired to make a wish...
