Locked in a lovelorn gaze
I watch my love fall into someone's embrace
This here sight is familiar
This sting in my heart is eerily similar

To a time past
Ere my broken soul was recast
A place where I watched her too
Achingly tread, with him, into the blue

Yet the thought of letting you go hurts me so
Just like it did then
The twice bitten beau
Gravely sulking in his den

But damn I should've known
Just like you she said I was the one
From the inceptive gaffe I should have grown
Now alas my soul is riven and with none
