Harry's POV
Out of my whole life, I regret only one thing. The day I said no. She had looked so crushed, her red stuck to her face. It had been a hot day, almost unbearable, and I made it no better for her. I told her no. I said I didn't have those kinds of feeling for her. That I felt more like a brother to her. All she wanted was a damn date, and I said no. She got over it of course. We remained friends. She dated other guys. Lots of other guys.
I recommend getttig your heart trapled on to everyone,
I recommend walking around naked in your living room,
Swallow it down (what a jagged little pill)
It feels so good (swimming in your stomach)
Wait until the dust settles
When she starting dating the one person I couldn't stand, I kept my mouth shut. I was supportive. Even though I hated Malfoy, I kep my mouth shut so I wouldn't hurt her.
They dated for a long time. Ron was furious at first of course, but he got over it. Hermione was happy for her. I was somewhere in between.
A few years after Hogwarts Ginny and Malfoy got engaged. I was happy for her. Hermione and Ron, who had been married for about a year at that time gave their blessing. Ron and I were the best men. I don't know why, but Malfoy asked us. During the wedding ceremony I was silent. But when the minister asked 'is there any reason these two should not be wed?' something in my heart cracked. I wanted to shout no. I wanted to tell her I made a mistake. I wanted her to choose me. But I kept quiet.
I kept quiet.
You live you learn
You love you learn
You cry you learn
You lose you learn
You bleed you learn
You scream you learn
I kept incorrespondance with her. Always put on a happy face when inside I was aching for her. I longed to go back to that hot, sticky day when I said no, so then I could make things right.
I was there for the birth of there first child. They named him Draco Jr. of course, to my disgust. But I held my tongue, even though I knew that I should be the one holding that baby. I cried for the first time that night.
I recommend biting off more than you can chew to anyone
I certainly do
I recommend sticking your foot in your mouth at any time
Feel free
Throw it down (the caution blocks you from the wind)
Hold it up (to the rays)
You wait and see when the smoke clears
I was there for every party they held, pretending I was having a great time.
I was there for every Christmas they invited Ron, Hermione and I too, pretending I was cheerful.
I was there everytime she and Malfoy fought, I was the should she cried on.
She never had a clue.
It was better that way.
I never did marry. Everytime I met someone my mind flashed back to that day, that unbearably hot day when I said no. When I had hurt her. When she moved on and I never did. I can't count the times I wanted to shout 'Ginny I love you!' but I never did. I kept quiet I never said a word. I just remembered that chance I had, that I didn't take.
You grieve you learn
You choke you learn
You laugh you learn
You choose you learn
You ask you learn
You live you learn
