Analysis of A Broken Heart To Mend
It hurts me to think
How I'm hurting you
But my feelings for you are so ever true.
It's hard to talk whenever you call
Because I know the pain that I've caused.
My apologies could never
Take away the pain
Yet very apologetic I still remain.
Your heart is open for me to come in
But I keep avoiding that question
"Could we be more than friends".
To tell you the truth
I've had a lot on my mind
Constantly wishing that I can turn back time.
If I knew then what I know now
There would be no reason no way or no how,
That I would be
In the situation I'm in,
And then I wouldn't have
a broken heart to mend.
