To The Man Who Once Loved Me
I Still Love You
To the man who once loved me
Where did you go?
Where can you be?
***
I must accept that you left me
And it breaks my heart so.
I close my eyes and count to three.
***
My love, my dear, where can you be?
My heart aches and my hope is low.
From this despair, I must break free.

***
You loved me once, you loved me free.
You've left and now the tears just flow,
Your love is the only key.
***
Death will approach me
As our love died long ago.
To the man who once loved me,
Where can you be?
