What Happened To Us?

I don’t understand what happened to us I don’t understand what happened to you
How can I believe that you still love me? When you act the way you do

You pushed me away when things got hard
You completely ignored me and put up your guard
We have been through so much together
Why don’t you trust me to make things better?

You never even gave me a chance to try
You locked me out and you made me cry
Even though I’ll always be your friend
I’m sad to see our relationship end

I still had so much love to give
And we still had our whole lives to live
I just hoped that we would do it together
And that our love would last forever

I feel like my heart has turned cold and died
But at the end of the day, At least I can say I tried
I don’t want to give up on us and even more on you
But there’s only so much one person can do

I can tell you over and over that I’ll always be here
But I can’t help it if you don’t really care
I can love you with everything that I have inside
But that only seems to make you run and hide

But you don’t realize that you’re running the wrong way
Come back to me and let me brighten your day
That’s how it used to be
Me for you and you for me

I just want to go back to yesterday
When I didn’t have to beg you to stay
When all I did was lay in your arms
And you kept me safe from a world of harm

Now it’s you who’s hurting me the most
When I’m around you treat me like a ghost
You see me, but you pretend I’m not there
It’s like you wish I would just disappear

I can’t help these feelings that I hold deep inside 
It’s like you just lost interest and got off the ride
But I’m still here waiting, still waiting to see
If you’ll get back on and finish this ride with me
