Everything Forever

© Anne Sumner 2013

Thought I told you how it was
My heart is wearing thin
Never was that good at love
Or letting people in
And I've been hurting here by your side
And I can't tell you why

But I feel so small, sitting in the gaps between your love
Invisible, falling through the cracks of who I was
And it's not a game that you can win
But I thought that love meant everything forever

Sold my freedom to commit
Convinced you were the one
It's taken all I have to give
But it's never quite enough
And I've been plagued by a lifetime of doubt
I thought it would be over by now

But I feel so small, sitting in the gaps between your love
Invisible, falling through the cracks of who I was
And I know it's me more than it's him
But I thought that love meant everything forever

And every change that I have felt
Takes me further form myself
And I just want you to hold me, and tell me that you see
There couldn't be a you without a me

But I feel so small, sitting in the gaps between your love
Invisible, falling through the cracks of who I was
And it's just the way it's always been
But I thought that love meant everything forever
