It's Not the Same

The price was high
The stakes where steep
But still I gave
My love so deep
I took a chance
When luck was down
I took your heart
I heard no sound
Of second thoughts
No backward glance
No change of heart
Nor change of plans
We made the move
And it felt right
Until I couldn't
Sleep at night
Carried a burden
Too much to bear
I couldn't do it
Without you there
To kiss my tears
Or hold my hand
I was alone
Without my man
I try to sleep
To close my eyes
I see the future
Then it dies
Like a flower
For our special day
Like all good things
They never stay
A brand new puppy
Then it dies
A smiling face
And then it lies
Or a ring
You never wore
Lack of words
Wanting more
I was the answer
You had an escape
But now you regret
The choice you made
You soon forgot
The reasons why
You gave up hope
No will to try
You changed your mind
And then you left
But to her
You're second best
She thinks it is over
She thinks she has won
But in you're heart
I'm still number one
