I Will Love Again

I woke up that day, same as always, both of us in our bed

And I knew for a fact then like I always had that it would never end

But turns out facts aren’t as stubborn as they should be

Seeing as how you’re waking up with someone other than me

I thought every problem had a solution, every conflict could end in compromise

I knew for sure through the lows we’d hold onto the promises of new highs

But turns out I couldn’t get you there, I hope you stay low forever, I hope they get you higher than I ever could

I hope all your lovers leave you in misery, I hope your new love lasts forever and is everything good

But there’s one thing I want you to know

I may be slower to recover from this blow

But even if all right now I can feel is the pain

And the rain

Even if my heart will never be the same

You will hear me swear on your name

I will love again

I was sure you were just taking some time to cool down

And you’d run right back home after taking some time off from this town

But two months later, where are you?

Over all the years we were together like it never happened and cuddling up with someone new

I still cannot make myself believe no matter how hard I try that you won’t be there when I open the door

But you never are and every single day it makes me sore

I hope they give you forever happiness, I hope they tear your heart to shreds like you did to me

I hope you two are together until the end of time, I hope they make like you and just get up one day and flee

But there’s one thing I want you to know

I may be slower to recover from this blow

But even if all right now I can feel is the pain

And the rain

Even if my heart will never be the same

You will hear me swear on your name

I will love again

I remember we were arguing, but I knew we were strong and could fight through it

You and I were too strong to ever quit

Well evidently not, seeing where we’re at now

You have a completely new life and I’m still asking how

I’m getting high and drunk to avoid thinking about us and you’re happier than you’ve ever been

The thought makes me throw a beer bottle against the wall, the thought makes me happy for you and grin

Congratulations, I’m happy for you two

I hope you party too hard tonight and it expedites your trip to hell

But there’s one thing I want you to know

I may be slower to recover from this blow

But even if all right now I can feel is the pain

And the rain

Even if my heart will never be the same

You will hear me swear on your name

I will love again
