Going home

I thought I knew what I was getting into,

When I fell haphazardly between your sheets,

One drunken December night,

When the world began to cease.

I thought I had it all planned out,

When I kept you up all night,

Talking and pondering the world

And reminding you it's your turn

To turn out the light.

I knew at once I wanted you,

The first time your lips met mine,

And I knew at once I'd lose you,

That night we lost track of time.

It was incredible to have loved you,

Although the pain of betrayal still stings,

I think of you quite often,

And can't deny the smile it brings.

Thank you for hurting me,

Thank you for loving me so,

Although you will not fight for me,

I'll fight to let you go.
