I was in love once.

I was in love once
I was afraid
Thought she might leave me
One of these days

I was so frightened
I was so scared
A life without her
I just couldn't bare

Feels like I'm slowly
Losing my mind
The jealously is visible
Though love may be blind

These feelings I have
I just can't push away
I'd do anything, anything
To get her to say (ay oh oh)

She broke my heart once
Never again
All down to me
I'll take all the blame

I held her too closely
I held her too tight
I understand now
That's why she took flight

Killing her with kindness
My love was blind
She couldn't live with my jealous mind
Slowly but surely
I pushed her away
I'd do anything, anything
But now it's too late

I'm still in love
And I'm still afraid
Hoping and praying
She'll come back
One of the these days
