I came from miles youтАЩll never see,
Chasing a dream you made in me,
Every road just led to you,
I thought your love was something true.
I carried hope across the sea,
Believed one day youтАЩd choose me,
Every word, I held so tight,
Thought I was your wrong made right.
(Pre-Chorus)
But love donтАЩt grow where it ainтАЩt real,
And truth cuts deeper than it feelsтАж
(Chorus)
Monica, I gave you all I had,
Every good in me, every piece, every chance,
Thought you were the love of my life,
Now IтАЩm standing here alone tonight.
Monica, I crossed the world for you,
But you never saw what I went through,
I was hoping youтАЩd be grateful for me,
Now IтАЩm just a broken memory.
(Verse 2)
You said forever with your eyes,
But your silence told me lies,
I was building us a home,
While you left me there alone.
I was thinking you were mine,
Reading signs that werenтАЩt a sign,
Now I see what I refusedтАФ
I was loving, you just used.
(Pre-Chorus)
And I canтАЩt force a heart to stay,
No matter how far I cameтАж
(Chorus)
Monica, I gave you all I had,
Every dream I built is turning bad,
Thought you were the love of my life,
Now IтАЩm losing you in black and white.
Monica, I crossed the world for you,
But your love was never true,
I was hoping youтАЩd be grateful for me,
Now IтАЩm just a broken memory.
(Bridge)
Maybe someday youтАЩll understand,
The weight of holding someoneтАЩs hand,
When they wouldтАЩve given you their soul,
Just to never let you goтАж
(Outro)
MonicaтАж I came too far to fall this way,
But IтАЩll find myself somedayтАж
