You know that I still love you,
And I know you love me too,
But why do you continue
Doing the things you do?
Knowing how it hurts me,
Each and every time.
Always growing harder
To accept that you’re not mine.
You know you cannot give me
What it is I really want,
So why do you still cause me
To have faith in what we’re not.
I try to resist you,
But you come on way too strong.
Our love is what keeps us
Continuing way too long.
You finally have told me
Why it is that you do,
And I have come to terms
That we both have been fooled.
It’s Time and its evil games,
Causes our love to feel like pain.
All the things that we feel,
Time will tell us it’s not real.
Time and its uncaring ways,
Always causing our dismay.
Causing us to hurt each other
By our unwillingness to accept its power.
We always wondered why it is we never met
After all the times our paths could have intersect.
Why is it until now when we finally meet
Is at the point in time when we cannot simply be,
So now I must surrender,
And you must do the same
To whom we all call Time
Is now the one I blame.
It’s impossible to battle Time
And all its wicked games
I hope he makes it up to me
For taking you away.
