I was the one who loved you
I was the one who cared
the one with whom your destiny would be shared
In me you had an eternity
the secrets of love you used to know
In my eyes you saw a dream
but of that dream you let go
I gave you the sun, the moon,
all the stars in the sky
The deepest love I gave to you
and in return you made me cry
Leaving me empty, no emotion left inside
slowly breaking me down
stripping my heart of dignity and pride
But someday as you lie alone
and hear the clock's endless tick
You will remember the softness of my hair
the smell of my perfume
traces of my lipstick
