Juan Olivarez - I Can't Live Like This

2014-06-16 1

I can't live like this,
Not with this pain.
Knowing you are his,
And with your disdain.

My world is so grey,
Now that you are gone.
How I rue the day,
When you left me alone.

Alone in my sorrow,
Alone in my grief.
There is no tomorrow,
Is what I believe.

You took my heart,
And threw it away.
I saw you depart,
While I had to stay.

I hope you'll be happy,
But I can't wish you well.
I'm sad and I'm lonely,
But I'll never tell.
