I was determined to write you a love song
Something that would ring in your ears for years to come
A lullaby, something sweet and tender and happy
To mask the bitterness that it has now become.
This is not an apology, it's just a gift for all the memories you gave me.
Now, who would apologize for that?
I'm yearning for the better times where your hand would hold mine
So tightly. I didn't think we'd ever let go.
But now we have, and I can't help but feel so lost and alone.
And now, I just wanna say that I love you more than anything
But I know, that it's just not the right time to say it
(Come on come on just say...)
No, because you're happier now than you've ever been
That smile that used to shine for me like the sun, it doesn't belong to me
How could I act so selfishly and take it back?
And your heart, it doesn't beat for me. The subtle drumming to the symphony.
It's not our song anymore. The music's changed. And so have we.
I remember the day we met, when the stoplight in my heart turned green.
It told me it was okay to move forward and that you were the one.
I listened and chose not to let caution intervene.
The intersection lasted for a lifetime, I swear, and each moment was so good.
And just when I was about to cross from the risk within love and lust.
Safety disappeared. We crashed into one another and broke in two.
I'm yearning for the better times where your hand could hold mine
So tightly. I wish you never let go.
But now you're gone, and I can't help but feel so lost and alone.
And it seems, I can't help but scream that I love you more than anything
But I know, that it's way too late to say it
(Come on come on just say...)
No, because you're happier now than you've ever been
That smile that used to shine for me like the sun, it doesn't belong to me
How could I act so selfishly and wish for it back?
And your heart, it doesn't beat for me. The subtle drumming to the symphony.
It's not our song anymore. The music's changed. And so have I.
I guess I could beg on my hands and my knees for you to come back
But, I refuse to profess something so important so foolishly
It's true that the reason I'm holding back is because I want to do this right
Even if there's no right way at all. Please understand me.
I don't want to open my heart and let out a flood.
I don't want to drown. I promised you forever, but
I can't stand by your side when you disappeared to some where I can't follow.
- Title: The Symphony
- Artist: huxlee
- Description: Just a little something I decided to write. It started off as something happy and lovey dovey, but to those who know me... lovey dovey isn't really my style. Heh. So.. I don't know how.. or when it started to morph into something sad and about a girls dead lover... but it did. And I'm proud of the result. Comments please. <3

- Sad, but love so often is. I love the image of the stoplight and the intersection.
