bottled up inside
are the words i never said
the feelings that i hide
the lines you never read

you can see it in my eyes
read it on my face
trapped inside are lies
of the past i can't replace

with memories that linger
won't seem to go away
why can't i be happier
todays a brand new day

yesterdays are over
even though the hurtings not
nothing lasts forever
i must cherish what i've got

don't takemy love for granted
for soon it will be gone
all you ever wanted
of the love you thought you've won

the hurt i'm feeling now
won't dissapear overnight
but some way some how
everything will turn out all right

no more wishing for the past
it was'nt meant to be
it did'nt seem to last
so i'll have to set him free
