candlelight flickers casting shadows deep
on fading photographs where memories sleep
every gentle touch
every whispered plea
now echoes hollow in the space of me
did you ever truly love me
or was it just a game you played
a fragile dream we carved in sand
now washed away by sorrow's hand
the scent of your perfume still lingers near
a ghostly whisper in my lonely ear
we built a world so vast
then watched it fall apart
leaving silent questions in my aching heart
did you ever truly love me
or was it just a game you played
a fragile dream we carved in sand
now washed away by sorrow's hand
i search for answers in the moonlit sky
a reason for the bitter goodbye
was i just a chapter a passing scene
or the love you promised you'd always mean
did you ever truly love me
or was it just a game you played
a fragile dream we carved in sand
now washed away by sorrow's hand
tell me now did you ever truly
truly love me
or was it all just make-believe
leaving me with nothing but to grieve
