Can't reach far enough
I had thought I'd found happiness: something so real.
I had told you my dreams: all my secrets revealed.
And now, you are gone and I've nothing to say:
Nothing to make all this pain go away.
I miss everything about you: your scent and your touch.
How, in such a short time, have I invested so much?
And now, you're with him and I watched it all happen
I watched as you twisted my dream into something misshapen.
You're so close to me, but I can't reach far enough
I wish that these tears could be more than enough
To show you just how much you do mean to me.
That when I am with you, the world disappears
but here I sit, all alone, and shed silent tears
for the girl that I lost and my heart as it shatters
I can't reach far enough to hold the one thing that matters.
