What Can't Be Changed
Unalterable Heartbreak: Reflections on Lost Love
Lyrics
You gave me your heart
You entrusted me with your love
I tore it apart
I unintentionally destroyed it
I never meant for it to end up this way
I never intended for our relationship to reach this unfortunate state
I tried playing it cool
I attempted to maintain a detached demeanor
I was such a fool
I acted foolishly
I should've told you how I felt
I should have expressed my true feelings to you
But now it's too late by the time I decided to tell
Unfortunately, I realized this too late to make a difference
But what can't be changed
Some things are unalterable
The price I have to pay
I must endure the consequences
The fact that it's too late
The reality of irreversibility
And things will never be the same
Our connection is forever altered
After all this time I wonder
Reflecting on the past, I ponder
Have you been doin' fine
Are you doing well after all this time?
And now that we're older would you give it another try
Considering our maturity, would you consider restarting?
'Cuz sometimes I still wish you were mine
Sometimes, I still desire your presence in my life
If I pour out my heart now would you freak out
If I express my true feelings, would you be alarmed?
Or would you pull me into your arms
Or would you embrace me warmly?
But what can't be changed
Certain aspects are beyond alteration
The price I have to pay
I must face the repercussions
The fact that it's too late
The acknowledgment that change is no longer possible
And things will never be the same
Our relationship has undergone an irreversible transformation
I hope when you meet the one she will treat you right
I wish for your future happiness with someone else
I hope she will make you smile and will hold you tight
Desiring that she brings joy and security to your life
Will realize how blessed she is to have you by her side
Hoping she recognizes her fortune in having you
Will never make you cry
Wishing she never causes you pain
Will never say goodbye
Praying she never bids farewell
All my regrets
All the things I wish I could change
I'll never forget
The memories of our first meeting linger
The first time we met
The enjoyable moments we experienced
The fun times we shared
All the errors led to
All my mistakes led to
The pain of my initial heartbreak
My first heartbreak
Attempting to repair these mistakes
And I'll try to
Despite efforts, redemption is elusive
Mend these mistakes
I strive to mend the past
But it's too late
Regrettably, it's beyond repair
And things will never be the same
Our connection is forever altered
