Lost

I crushed your heart
and threw us out
trampled the love we'd built
and let our lives crumble down
I don't know why
it took so long to realize
exactly what I'd done
I know it was never worth the cost
looking back on what I've lost
you cherished me with all you had
I let it slip away, let you slip away
now you love her, and I still love you
with my own heart shattered
why did I wait so long to feel
tears burn falling from my face
nightly dreams remind me
of the things I'd never have gone through
If I'd never left you
after everything I've gained
It never fills the hole in my arms
where you used to lie
It never was worth the cost,
gone for good, you're what I've lost
