Untold

no one ever told me

how tough it would have been

to walk away from love

and to begin again

I think they failed to mention

how much I'd miss and regret

all the great moments of our past

that I could never forget

how far away the past is

when not that far from sight

for I could only relive every moment

when I've drifted for the night

no one ever told me

that I'd miss the way you hold me

and oh how your perspective changes

when the past and present rearranges

they forgot to tell me where to go

once I realized I don't know

when I let my pride go astray

and I stopped philosophizing

when your eyes were what I took for granted

oh so mesmerizing

I know I was never told

that I wasn't ready to grow old

and they let me do what I could

which was too much to drag

and they knew that I would

naive of this emotional lag

I don't think they ever told me

that love would once disown me

and if they told me that even happiness

is libel to fall apart

I would have gave up playing

before the game could start
