Lyrics

When you left, you took everything except for dust
My life gone, was a fool to trust
Every sign told of a tragic story
But I was in love and I ignored it

Now you're gone and I'm oh so sad
You took my heart and all I had
And I'm lost and alone with my fears
I've cried an ocean of tears

I can't cry forever, my heart is tired
Where is the love you once inspired?
The love you once promised me
You promised the world to me
I can't cry forever, I won't lie
So much crying it hurts my eyes
You did a number on my life
I can't keep crying forever, I won't try

Lonely nights that seem like years
Silent sobs no one can hear
It was never the material things
I thought love had true meaning

Sometimes love is worth fighting for
I'd truly challenge the world to war
But your love has left me cold
And all the fight in me is gone

I can't cry forever, my heart is tired
Where is the love you once inspired?
The love you once promised me
You promised the world to me
I can't cry forever, I won't lie
So much crying it hurts my eyes
You did a number on my life
I can't keep crying forever, I won't try

I won't follow, I won't chase you
Or will I hastily replace you?
I will hang my head in shame & just
Replace the things you've taken
