There will never be a night without a dawn.
A lot of things are different
A lot have stayed the same
A lot I’m still not sure if I
Can deal with after you.
You’ve changed your mind so often
So much so that I’ve tried
To understand how things could be
All better after you.
You promised me forever
And I held on to your words
I never though I’d hurt so much
Not until after you.
My sorrow wouldn’t end that’s why
I looked for peace within
The peace I never felt before
But only after you.
I’ve picked up all the pieces
Of my life that you dismissed
It will take time but surely
I’ll be better after you.
Standing on my feet again
I’ve never felt so fine
To think that just a while ago
I’ve been running after you.
A lot of things are different
A lot have stayed the same
I’m still the woman you once loved
But wisdom I have gained
I’ll give my life not sparingly
But only to the man
Who knows, respects and loves me
For the woman that I am.
