"It's better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all."
When someone was never yours to begin with, was there anything there to lose? In a world where you can get whatever you want, how is it you can still be left empty in the end? Can you ultimately find what was left behind? Why is it that the bonds that connect people so tightly can also rip us apart?
I'm in an odd mood these days, with a touch of melancholy. There is a song that just popped right into my head and won't go away. Maybe putting some of its lines on the blog here will do the trick?
I could hardly believe it when I heard the news today
I had to come and get it straight from you
They said you were leaving, someone swept your heart away
From the look upon your face I see it's true
So tell me all about it, tell me 'bout the plans you're makin'
Then tell me one thing more before I go
Tell me how am I supposed to live without you
Now that I've been lovin' you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
And how am I supposed to carry on
When all that I've been livin' for is gone
It's just a dream of mine is comin' to an end
How can I blame you when I built my world around
The hope that one day we'd be so much more than friends
And I don't wanna know the price I'm gonna pay for dreamin'
I need you know, it's more than I can take
And I don't wanna know the price I'm gonna pay for dreamin'
Now that your dream has come true...
