You’re Alone No Matter What

It doesn’t matter how many new haircuts you get

It doesn’t matter how many new clothes you buy

It doesn’t matter how much perfume you wear

It doesn’t matter how many new pairs of heels you try

It doesn’t matter what job you have

It doesn’t matter how popular you seem

It doesn’t matter how many friends you’ve got

It doesn’t matter what compliments you receive

cos when it comes to him,

there’ll always be that one other girl

whose skirt is a little bit shorter

and legs are a little bit skinnier

whose lips are a little more kissable

and eyes are a little bit prettier

who’ll mean more to him than you thought she would ...

who’ll mean more to him than you ever could ...

You won't be his first, his last, or his only. He's loved before, and he will love again ... But if he loves you now, what else matters ? He's not perfect and neither are you, which both of you will never be. But if he makes you laugh, at least once causes you to think twice, and he admits to being human and to making mistakes, hold on to him and give him all you've got. He's not going to quote poetry, and he isn't going to be thinking about you every single moment of every single day, but he will give you a part of him, that he knows you can break. Don't hurt him, don't change him, don't expect too much from him. But smile when he makes you happy, cry when he makes you sad, and miss him when he's not there with you ...

Here's Why ...

“Maybe it’s best if you let go,

Times change and life goes on,

Why? “, she asked, “Why the hope?

Why are you still holding on?”

My eyes are wet, but I smile anyway,

And as I turn to her, this is what I say:

Because he’s the last person I think about

                Every night before I fall asleep

Because every time his eyes meet mine

                He sweeps me off my feet

Because his is the first face I want to see

                Every morning as I open my eyes

Because I know I can’t forget his smile

                Even after a million tries

Because every time I am with him

                Everything else just fades to gray

And the way he says my name

                Still takes my breath away

Because somehow I feel like he’s here

                Whenever they play our song

Because every time we talk on the phone

                Thoughts of him haunt me all night long

Because every time I hear his voice

It brings a smile to my face

Because every time I feel close to him

                It takes me to my happy place

Because every time he cracks a joke

                He makes me laugh like no one else can

Because all the time we spent together

                I was happier than I’ve ever been

Because sometimes when I want to break down and cry

                I still need to put up a false pretence

And somewhere through this hollow emptiness

                I can somehow sense his presence

Because every time I feel alone and weak

                I realize why I’ve held on for so long

And I look up at the sky, the stars, the moon

                And I tell myself, come what may, I’ll always have the strength to hold on

Because I’ve felt a love like never before

                And it made my world just seem so right

Because nobody ever says it easy

                But at the end, it’s always worth the fight

Because without him standing by my side

                My life is empty, incomplete

Because when I told him “I won’t let go”

                It was a promise I meant to keep

Because somehow, somewhere deep inside my heart

                I still believe in fate

Because someday we’ll be together forever

                And I know he’s worth the wait …
