My Everything

Oh, you gave me hope, you gave me a life, I chased what I thought was true I waited, but you never came, now I'm fading in the shadows of you Love is for the youth they say, ours was true, burning away Oh, I waited, but you never came I really believed you felt the same My everything I gave it all away, lost to nothing for the hope of you But no matter what I did or tried to say, everything wasn't good enough, it's true Do you want me to lie, say I don't love you anymore? Is there a way we could begin again, or am I left with the ghost of what could have been? Love is for the youth they say, ours was true burning away Oh, I waited, but you never came, I really believed you felt the same My everything, I gave it all away, lost to nothing for the hope of you But no matter what I did or tried to say, everything wasn't good enough, it's true I gave you my world, my everything, now I'm left with the pain it brings You gave me hope then turned to stone, and left me here with regret alone Love is for the young they say but ours is a fire that burned away I waited, waited, but you never came, I really believed you felt the same My everything, I gave it all away, lost to nothing for the hope of you But no matter what I did or tried to say, everything wasn't good enough, it's true Everything wasn't good enough for you My everything was you You were everything
