Like a Knife in My Heart

My future is broken,

like a knife in my heart.

All hopes are scattered,

and torn apart.

For I loved him more than anything.

But he went and turned away.

Now I shall I shall live out my days,

and never hear him say...

"I'll love you forever, and never give up.

The future is ready, life pours out from a cup.

Never forget, how I'll do anything for you.

The future is ready, all we must say is 'I Do'"

But he fell for another, my heart is now bruised.

I know it, I do, for I heard the news.

The future is broken, I feel his disdain.

He has shut the door, and I'm standing in the rain.

No matter what I do, I can't see the sun rays.

For I would kill myself, just to hear him say...

"I'll love you forever, and never give up.

The future is ready, life pours out from a cup.

Never forget, how I'll do anything for you.

The future is ready, all we must say is 'I Do'"

Two gossiping ladies, not good with a secret,

they told me the news, of a blond/brunette.

The Hero proposed, and the two will now wed,

my heart is now empty, its been pumped full of lead.

My future is broken,

like a knife in my heart.

All hopes are scattered,

and torn apart.

All that's left for me now, is this empty farmland.

And my flowing red hair, and my skin, lightly tanned.

But what good are my looks when they please not the one,

to whom I'd swear my life, and say "I Do" till I'm done?

I see him coming, to deliver the news.

To ask me to come to his great wedding cruise.

But how can I face him, when my life lies in pieces.

Tears come to my eyes, as my heartbeat ceases.

My future is broken,

like a knife in my heart.

All hopes are scattered,

and torn apart.

I break down before him, crying out my heart,

as I see his sweat face, so like a work of art.

But no master on earth, or in heaven could describe,

my pain at the sound of the horrible vibe.

"I know that you will marry, don't tell me again,

the truth is too painful that you, out of all men,

must marry a girl, luckier than any.

For I tell you, I have loved you for years numbering many."

I see tears in his eyes, and a void in his heart,

but I just turn away, my fate has been marked.

But he suddenly grabs my hand, and pulls me into a kiss,

the look in his eyes was one you couldn't miss.

My eyes flash in surprise as he lovingly caresses,

my cheek and my face, oh the Father blesses!

He then pulls away, and looks into my eyes.

And as the light fades, I hear him say...

"I'll love you forever, and never give up.

The future is ready, life pours out from a cup.

Never forget, how I'll do anything for you.

The future is ready, all we must say is 'I Do'"

The rumor was false, there is no brunette,

he loves me so much, and has no regrets.

We bought a nice house, a child on its way,

sometimes I wish that it would arrive here today.

Its funny how life is, one minute I'm down,

the next I'm rejoicing, my heart knows no frown.

He tucks me into bed, and beside me he lays,

and as the light dims, I hear him say.

"I'll love you forever, and never give up.

The future is ready, life pours out from a cup.

Never forget, how I'll do anything for you.

The future is ready, all we must say is 'I Do'"
