Innocent Eyes
He looked at me,
With his innocent eyes.
How could I have known,
He would say goodbye?
He hurt me, though,
way more than he should have.
He did it the wrong way.
Oh, how could he have?
I was the last to know,
Like they say in all the songs.
He told everyone else first.
Didn't he know it was wrong?
A single tear,
Slid out of my eye,
As I walked away,
And wondered, Why?
I was confused,
Felt like I could'nt go on,
Until I finally thought,
Was my WHOLE life gone?
I had so many friends,
To love and comfort me.
Why was I so sad,
If i was finally, truely, FREE?
I swallowed the lump,
That had welled in my chest.
I had given him me heart.
Hadn't I done my best?
A newfound freedom,
Came over me.
I needed someone to love.
Who would he be?
I thought and thought,
And suddenly I knew.
I had always had someone.
Wasn't HIS love always true?
First, I wondered,
If i was making a mistake.
Did I only want him,
To fill this empty place?
I thought this over,
And the very next day,
I knew he would'nt be wrong.
Why should I have to wait?
I knew I was right,
Because you made me laugh, not cry.
We talked on for hours and I thought,
Isn't HE the right guy?
I felt so comfortable,
When I was with him.
He was so funny, sweet, and honest.
Did I have a reason to be grim?
After all that time,
You waited patiently,
for my heart to open.
Why couldn't I see?
Weren't you the one,
Who stood by my side,
And smiled and laughed,
When you wanted to cry?
And now I know for sure,
For now, YOU'RE the right one.
I have a happy ending,
But will my peom ever be done?
With his innocent eyes.
How could I have known,
He would say goodbye?
He hurt me, though,
way more than he should have.
He did it the wrong way.
Oh, how could he have?
