I Believed

This is the you that I remember
This is the man I'll love forever
The one sending sweet words
And bitchin' about whoever hurts
His baby girl, the love of his life
The face he wants to wake up to at night
And the face he wants to see in the morning
But this man is gone, and I'm adorning
His grave with the love that I lost
And I want to give him life again, but I'm lost too

I know we're over, but I'm not over you
And I know I said goodbye, but it's not true
Because I'm waiting for him to come back to me
And say I miss you, baby, I'm so sorry

Pictures are worth a thousand letters
And your pictures are full of deceit and better
Because you kept me around after you died
The new you was vicious, cheater, lie
But I held on even tighter, because I believed
It's been a while now, and I still believe

Maybe you'll come back to me
Maybe you'll start to see
No one treated you better than me
You say what you please
But you were on your knees
Begging me to take you back
And now I'm all alone again
