Rain was pounding on the windows
Candles lit all around me,
Half dressed.
Mascara running down my cheek
As I look at the past
Of you and me.
Why did we have to end it like this?
You were the one I needed to survive
I guess she's more important
I felt your thunder and I felt your lighting.
But those are all memories now.

It no longer hurts to think of your kiss
No longer stings when I think of your smile
I feel no pain when I see your face
No longing after such a long while
And though I may lapse every now and then
Into wishful memories of days gone by
I know I won't love you again
I remember the pain that ***** my heart
I remember the tears that flowed from my eyes
But now I've begun a new start
I'll remember you now, and my thoughts are kind You aren't my burden to bear And you are no longer on my mind

Everyone has a different story to tell, Each fascinating in its own way,
Some have dealt with hardships and pain,
Others have had amazing experiences,
But every story you hear,
They will all say the same thing,
That they have had some encounter with love, Good or bad, They all get through it,
And when their story is through,
You are left with the memories that they had,
Of what went on during that special time in their life.
That time when they first discovered what love truly is.
