A woman decides to leave the married man she was dating
I stood at the door and said goodbye
You stood at the car door and looked back
That look that always made me run back to you.
My body felt weak and I felt like screaming
For you to come back and we forget everything else
You got in your car and drove away
Your car became a spot in my view as you drove on.

You were never mine to love
You were never mine to kiss
You were never mine to keep
But that does not mean I will not miss you.

We had a lot that we shared
The jokes that made me laugh to tears
The rides where you drove beyond speed limit
The showers and steam baths
And the comfort of belonging

You were never mine to love.
You chose her in the long run
I have my regrets
But what I shared with you is worth all the guilt

Run on home to your family.
I hope you are all happy
Laugh,smile, appreciate each other
However much you miss me forget me and walk on


I did the same
I found him
He is not you
But I do not want you
He is my destiny
And mine to love
