I came from miles youโll 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 youโd choose me,
Every word, I held so tight,
Thought I was your wrong made right.
(Pre-Chorus)
But love donโt grow where it ainโt real,
And truth cuts deeper than it feelsโฆ
(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 Iโm standing here alone tonight.
Monica, I crossed the world for you,
But you never saw what I went through,
I was hoping youโd be grateful for me,
Now Iโm 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 werenโt a sign,
Now I see what I refusedโ
I was loving, you just used.
(Pre-Chorus)
And I canโt force a heart to stay,
No matter how far I cameโฆ
(Chorus)
Monica, I gave you all I had,
Every dream I built is turning bad,
Thought you were the love of my life,
Now Iโm losing you in black and white.
Monica, I crossed the world for you,
But your love was never true,
I was hoping youโd be grateful for me,
Now Iโm just a broken memory.
(Bridge)
Maybe someday youโll understand,
The weight of holding someoneโs hand,
When they wouldโve given you their soul,
Just to never let you goโฆ
(Outro)
Monicaโฆ I came too far to fall this way,
But Iโll find myself somedayโฆ
