I trusted you with all I had 
I gave my heart of hearts.
You forgot that it was there,
And let it from your tender care.
I was betrayed... my lady fair.

No longer am I whole now 
I'm missing bits and parts.
I know you have them in your hand,
But you don't understand.
Now I'm just a grain of sand...

Nothing more than a small piece 
I fight for your affection.
Now I sit here feeling hurt
And if I may be so curt.
I took a bet... and lost my shirt.

I took the gamble and I lost 
it's time now for collection.
Now I stop to close my soul,
And bitter grief will take it's toll;
Now I am no longer whole.

I lost my one and only chance 
I'm not in deep regret.
What's done is done, I know
But what do have I to show.
And where am I to go?

I covet you, I craved you, 
Ever since the day we met.
But what good does it do?
No more may I have you,
Though I deeply want to...

The tide sweeps in and drags 
Me back into the ocean blue.
Now I know you're gone,
It's time I'm moving on.
I'm waiting for the dawn.

I promise one day I will find 
The long road back to you.
And now I live in fear
I shed an empty tear
And wish that you were here...
