One time, on a rainy summer evening
She approached me amidst the pouring rain
She did not speak of anything
But rather told me to endure the pain

Because in one circumstance
Everything that's grey and blue
Could be changed in one glance
In the sight of me and you

I did not know what to say
Traumatized by my past lover
The words she spoke that day
"I love you, au revoir"

At first, I wasn't charmed
Her words, didn't heal me
But rather, caused more harm
That the one hidden inside me

But as days passed by,
We got closer and closer
She got something I can't deny
She became the bee to my flower

Then one time, on a dark, starry night
I was filled with joy and fright
I was ready to take flight
On a sky so celestial and bright

Filled with planets and stars
That may seem oh so far
But I'm determined to soar
And be felt, inside your beating core

But things went wrong
I thought it was strong
I thought it would last long
But you didn't like my song

You shunned me on this hell
Left me to rot in this cell
You bid me farewell
Which made me crawl back to my shell

Then I realized that this was the end
To the love, that I thought would mend
The life that's starting to descend
Now, I'm back to the game of "Pretend"
