Without You

Wilting Rose

I'm so lonely

Without you by my side

You said you'd never leave me

But you also said you'd lie



You told me I could count on you

And that I was your only friend

When I opened up and let you in

I trusted you'd be there til the end



Any trouble you had became mine too

And we'd take each step together

But why did I love you so

When you told me it'd not be forever?



You told me to stay away

From a friendship I would only lose

You told me that you'd break me

And I'd only end up being bruised



So here I stand with my heart in my hand

Somehow I know you'll break it

But I don't care - I'll stand by you

Because together I know we can make it
