Baby girl
I felt this was the only way that you would hear me
The only way to get you to really understand
Exactly what I feel
Opened my heart to love
Against my better judgment
You were my wish upon a star
And my nights are lonely
Were my one and only
And still you tore my world apart
I know on a star I'm wishing
For the one that I've been missing
I know without you in it
This life, my life, ain't worth living
Looking at you now, I know we're finished
You took my love and it's all been given
Now I'm here, begging and pleading
For you to love me, you don't even listen
I don't know why I'm still here
When you said you'd try to act like you don't even care
Offered up my heart, one life to share
Committed to a love, not a one-night affair
Now to the sky, I sit and stare
Promise my soul on that ring, I swear
I jumped in, you got scared
And just like that, left standing here
Looking at it now, all that we've been through
All of the issues, still falling deeper every time I kiss you
If you didn't feel the same, should've kept it official
Never said yes, just left, would've missed you
On separate ways, but the best would've wished you
A better life, just wanted to give you
Till death do, spend a lifetime with you
You were once my home
No more nights alone
Oh, how I loved you so
Babe, you'll never know
Let my emotions show
Gotta let you go
It's time I found my own
Cause those days are gone
The more I regret the moment I met you
You never really loved me, don't tell me, did you
How could you do what you did do
All of your shortcomings took you as you
Wholehearted, loved every part of
Knew it was you from the moment we started
At that time, wasn't really what I wanted
You pursued till you got him, locked him down
And early, we were targets
Both our paths started causing problems
Made a mistake, speaking honest
The hell I was put through, never forgotten
You know what it's like when the one that you love
That you're feigning to touch, know what it does
When she doesn't want you, when you put her above
When you give her your all and it’s never enough
Holding on refusing to budge
You hope for a way, you pray for a change
You feel her slowly slipping away
Knowing now, it'll never be the same
Destroyed either way, so much pain
Both in the book, but the page ain't the same
No more games, it ends right here
I'm sorry, Ma, I'm walking away now
You were once my home
No more nights alone
Oh, how I loved you so
Babe, you'll never know
Let my emotions show
Gotta let you go
It's time I found my own
Cause those days are gone
Open my heart to love
Against my better judgment
You were my wish upon a star
Now my nights are lonely
Were my one and only
And still you tore my world apart
That's what you did, Ma
You tore my world
You shattered it
Everything I had
Playing for us
The dream to keep us together
And all you did was keep us apart
You were once my home
No more nights alone
Oh, how I loved you so
Babe, you'll never know
Let my emotions show
Gotta let you go
It's time I found my own
Cause those days are gone
Open my heart to love
Against my better judgment
You were my wish upon a star
Now our nights are lonely
Were my one and only
And still you tore my world apart
