Every time that I look back, I can see your pretty face
Knowing all that lies between us is lots of empty space
But I turn around, as we continue on our separate ways
This was all a dream I hope to forget about one day
There wasn't any hurt, I never saw a bigger smile
The happiness was one I hadn't felt in quite awhile
It was us against the world, as the stress began to pile
Thoughts in my head of walking down the aisle
Then you chose to relive a past that you once knew
The lies became much greater, and the distance grew
One day all of your wishes seemed to come true
If only you realized, my dream was to be with you
You lost that sparkle that I once saw in your eyes
You torture your own heart and don't even know why
You ignore your problems and hope they'll all pass by
Every night I lay in my bed, I can still hear you cry
Now you sit still, not a place that you wanted to be
Take a look back, tell me what it is that you see
I smile cause I'm strong, and I'll always be happy
I'm only sad that you would choose sadness over me
