Blue Eyed Boy

The light in your eyes still crosses my mind
When I think of us together from time to time
What was I thinking? What a ridiculous vision
As if my love was enough to have changed your decision
I wish I could take back letting my soul wander free
Now my heart aches for something that could never be
I broke down all my barriers just to let you deep inside
I tore apart past-induced fears and swallowed all my pride
A freshly pitch black world now where all I seem to see
Are the color-filled smiles of couples that should have been you and me
Your touch, an addictive drug, flowing swiftly through my veins
But now that the withdrawls have set in, I have never known this much pain
This insurmountable adoration for you would have never gone away
If you had let me simply love you for forever and a day
They say the hardest lesson in life is learning to let love go
But I say the hardest lesson of all is denying the chance to let love grow
