What we had was love

I will take the pain
If that means what we had was love
A furrowed brow and lack of sleep I will keep
If that means what we had was love
I will accept a broken heart, my world torn apart
If that means what we had was love
Retain memories precious, despite making me nauseas
If that means what we had was love

For if it wasn’t love and this is for naught
I won’t be able to face the brutal emotional onslaught

I will wish you well, not cast into hell
If that means what we had was love
Forgive your changed mind, try to be kind
If that means what we had was love
I’ll face the friends we shared, alone, torment shown
If that means what we had was love
Find a way to feel once more, a loving encore
If that means what we had was love

For if it wasn’t love and this was all a lie
I will lock myself away, and hope will die
