Watched You Fall

by Dark Angel - Pisces

I saw you out on a date last week
Finally found a girl you liked after all
So I quietly slipped back out the restaurants door
As I saw you peer into her eyes and I watched you fall.

I had received a phone call from you later that night
Since I told you that if you ever needed anything to give me a call
You said you thought she was the one but I, you still missed
So you poured your heart out to me and I watched you fall.

You said you weren't ready for a relationship
Plus work kept you pretty busy all in all
And I watched your heart slowly deteriorate
Saw your life drain before you and all I could do was watch you fall.

You're not the same person you used to be
No longer carrying yourself proud and tall
You've lost all hope and all self confidence
Allowing me to do nothing, just sit back and watch you fall.

You've grown quiet now, no longer smile
Drowning in your sorrow since you lost your girlfriend after all
I tried to tell you that she wasn't going to stick around
But you just shoved me away and I had to watch you fall.

I'm sorry for the girls who have caused you pain
I'm sorry for life's heavy loads and jobs that drive you insane
I'm sorry for not helping you more, not being here for every one of your calls
And I'm sorry that you pushed me away and made me watch you fall.
