Unrequited love
The memories we’ve made will last a lifetime
They’ll never know a goodbye
We were souls on our own paths
Meant to bump into each other
Who knew it wouldn’t last

When you love someone that doesn’t love you
It's like reaching for a star
You know you’ll never reach it
But you continue to pursue
I’ll be over you, as soon as forever is through

I knew you felt we weren’t meant to be
So I tried to convince myself of the same
And then I’d see you smile, you’d put your arm around me
All my logic and convincing just evaporated
I let myself love you again

When you love someone that doesn’t love you
It's like reaching for a star
You know you’ll never reach it
But you continue to pursue
I’ll be over you, as soon as forever is through

From my sleeve I pulled out my heart
Handing it to you, I felt so afraid
My heart was racing, my world upside down
I couldn’t see what was happening around
I couldn’t see I was about to fall

When you love someone that doesn’t love you
It's like reaching for a star
You know you’ll never reach it
But you continue to pursue
I’ll be over you, as soon as forever is through

My ceramic heart’s now on the floor,
Shattered and completely broken
With each piece that I pick up
A clearing of my mind awoken --
I need to let go

When you love someone that doesn’t love you
It's like reaching for a star
You know you’ll never reach it
But you continue to pursue
I’ll be over you, as soon as forever is through

I’ll keep myself busy with things to do
But everytime I pause I’ll still think of you
A single tear escapes from my eye
As I turn and walk away, saying good-bye
But you will always have a piece of my heart,
Because it's made its choice not to part


I’ll be over you, as soon as forever is through
