I looked into your eyes 
they told me plenty 
I already knew 
you never felt a thing 
so soon forgotten all that you do 
in more than words I 
tried to tell you 
the more I tried I failed 

I would not let myself believe 
that you might stray 
and I would stand by you 
no matter what they'd say, I would have thought I'd be with you 
until my dying day 
until my dying day 

I used to think my life 
was often empty 
a lonely space to fill 
you hurt me more than 
I ever would have imagined 
you made my world stand still 
and in that stillness 
there was a freedom 
I never felt before 

I would not let myself believe 
that you might stray 
and I would stand by you 
no matter what they'd say, I would have thought I'd be with you 
until my dying day 
until my dying day
