My Dear
There was a time
In the past
When I thought our love
Would surely last.
I knew I was ready
To settle down.
But you still wanted
To run around.
I waited and waited,
It seemed like forever,
For that special day when
We would be together.
But then something happened,
That day never came.
You've decided to give
Someone else your name.
Now I understand
I wasn't the one,
You would come back to
When you wanted love.
I'm sorry my dear,
This time I can't wait.
I have to move on
Before it's too late.
I hope you have found
Your someone special
That no one else could be.
But if not,
I want you to know
You can always come back to me.
