What Did You Think I'd Do (RNB) (pending finalization)

What did you think I'd do,
What did you think I'd say,
When you said that you're leaving,
Did you think I'd beg you to stay,
You've said that you can't change,
So now I know you live that way,
You've said that you can't stay,
But my life isn't (ain't) gonna go away,
Even though I'm still living,
In the gutter (scars) of your heartbreaking yesterdays.

My heart always gave you the best,
But I was your last choice,
Just a forgotten romantic priority,
So there never any hopes of romantic harmony.

Chorus
What did you think I'd do,
What did you think I'd say,
When you said that you're leaving,
Did you think I'd beg you to stay,
Did you think I'd break down and cry,
Did you think I'd beg you for another try,
Did you think I'd wait around,
For your mistakes to leave you,
Loveless on the shelf, high and dry.

What did you think I'd do,
When you started to walk out that door,
What did you think I'd say,
When you didn't come back for more,
What did you think I'd do,
When you told me you'd found someone new,
Did you think I'd trade in my dreams,
For a life full of your mistakes,
And the rotten heartbreak of you.

What did you think I'd do,
What did you think I'd say,
When I reminded you of the things,
That you once promised me,
And when I told you that this isn't,
How love is supposed to be,
So many times I'd beg you to change,
But you just kept exploiting my trust,
Because you were far too busy,
Betraying the last drops of love in us.

Do you think my today doesn't remember,
What you did to me yesterday,
And do you think my joy depends on,
Whether you go or stay,
Do you think I'll trade in my happiness,
Waiting for more of your rotten heartbreak,
And do you think I'll continue to love you,
So that I repeat those painful mistakes.

My heart always gave you the best,
But I was your last choice,
Just a forgotten romantic priority,
So there was never any hope of romantic harmony.

So what do you think I'll do,
Now that you've walked out that door,
What do you think I'll say,
Do you think I'll run after you,
And beg you for more,
Now I've grown much stronger and wiser,
So I won't be waiting around for you,
And I'm releasing you,
Back into the wild,
So my heart can find a love that's true.

Outro
Because deep down in my heart,
There's no more love left for you,
And there's no love to reconcile anymore,
Because now I'm truly over,
The painful rotten heartbreak of you.

My Love Was Not Returned (Est. 4 mins 30 seconds) (rough draft)

Gave you all the love that I could,
But you traded our love in as it suited your mood,
Every night my heart tossed and turned,
But my love was not returned,
No words can make your wrongs into a right,
No matter how hard for our love I did fight,
A lost love that lives in the lost and found,
Because my love was not returned,
A weary heart can't win a war,
And I fought for you until I could fight no more,
I can't change your heartless ways, (bitter bite/every bitter night)
Or replace your lips that betray me every day,
So now I let you go your way,
But the bitter memories that pierce my heart will always stay,
I'm the owner of a lost heart that was never found,
Because my love was not returned.

Chorus
All I have is lost heart that was never found,
Because my love was not returned,
Every night my heart tossed and turned,
Because my love was not returned,
So my heart now lives in the lost and found, (I'm just a lost love that lives in the lost and found,)
Because my love was not returned,
And though I gave my heart to you,
Your love for me really wasn't true.

My life just became an empty space,
Because our love had no smile or face,
And your lack of response could not be ignored,
Because my love was not returned,
A blank missing segment that had no core,
A shattered, crushed heart that needed so much more,
My heart sits upon the unwanted shelf,
Because my love was not returned,
The dusty memories of rejection are all that remain,
Because our two hearts were not the same,
So now I have to find the strength to leave,
And dig deep inside myself for the steps that I need,
Now I must let you go your way,
But the painful memories that pierce my heart will always stay,
I'm the owner of a lost heart that was never found,
Because my love was not returned.

My heart now beats slowly in surrender every day,
Because my love couldn't win the war to stay,
A vacant space fills and lives inside my heart,
Because my love was not returned,
A tired love from my heart that tried so hard,
A lonely tear in my eyes that waits to be loved,
There's just a blanket of sadness that covers my life,
Because my love was not returned,
My love can't force your heart to be true,
And so now I have stopped asking you,
For something I know you really can't give,
Because inside your heart love for me doesn't live, ( no love lives,)
So now I must let you go your way,
But the painful memories that pierce my heart will always stay,
I'm the owner of a lost heart that was never found,
Because my love was not returned.

A defeated heart has no place to live,
Because surrender is a lonely path that doesn't give,
And no comfort will come to nurse my heart,
Because my love was not returned,
A lost love in your arms was all I could find,
A dream of victory that would never be mine,
Mine was a hopeful heart that loved every part of you,
But my love was not returned,
Debris of blame are now all that remain,
And as I pick up the pieces I try my best to explain,
To my broken heart what my mind can't understand,
Because my love for you was built from rocks not sand,
So now as I leave and I go my way,
The painful memories that pierce my heart are all that stay,
I'm the owner of a lost heart that was never found,
Because my love was not returned.

Chorus
All I have is lost heart that was never found,
Because my love was not returned,
Every night my heart tossed and turned,
Because my love was not returned,
I'm just a lost love that lives in the lost and found,
Because my love was not returned,
And though I gave my heart to you,
Your love for me really wasn't true.

I'm Just a Teardrop Away From Heartbreak (rough draft)

Strong ripples of love flowed to you directly from my heart,
But the still waters ran very deep upon your part,
The tide of romance came and went when my tears started to fall,
Because I dove into love and I gave you my all,
Some stormy waves rocked my heart and then I began to sink,
Because your heart and my heart were way out of sync,
Though my heart held onto the hope of a love so true,
The teardrops fell from my heart because no love came from you.

Chorus
So now, I'm just a teardrop away from heartbreak,
Because of the lying things you do,
Our romance is unromantic because your heart isn't true,
Teardrops are my only friend now,
And I can't carry the hurt and pain,
Coz I'm just a teardrop away from heartbreak,
And every day your lying tongue is just the same.

Every day my heart sang a song of love to you,
But my tears couldn't touch or change what you do,
My heart became so weary and the notes fell out of tune,
But my love and tears couldn't change my heart's sad swoon,
Each melody became like a burden of hurt, rejection and tears,
And the harsh notes that your heart played confirmed my deepest fears,
Though every beat of my heart held onto the love that once felt so right,
The teardrops fell from my heart every single day and night.

A layer of ice froze your heart though I gave you so much,
And I tried and tried to melt that ice with my loving touch,
But I was so lost in the hope of making our love right,
That I didn't see your icicles that dripped with hurtful spite,
When I crashed into your iceberg and my heart began to capsize,
Then I started to accept that my love you would never recognize,
Though every beat of my heart held onto hopes of a lifetime of love with you,
The teardrops fell from my heart when I discovered that you'd been so untrue.

Final Chorus
So now, I'm just a teardrop away from heartbreak,
And I'm drowning in the pain,
Because life and love taste bitter with all the hurtful rain,
I'm just a teardrop away from heartbreak,
And I can't carry on,
So I must love and leave you because your heart's just a painful thorn.

Change Your Heart (rough draft)

Every day I wish for your heart to change,
But your indifference towards me still remains the same,
A true love ignored as each second ticks by,
But my heart can't surrender and so I still have to try.

Our future is written in love upon my heart,
But until you agree our love can't start,
A fate of love so true, honest, pure and deep,
But until you change your heart I just exist in defeat.

Chorus
Change your heart and share your love with me,
Then we can have a future that is truly free, (full of beauty)
Every second that ticks by leaves us with a love that's late,
Each moment buried in a past that really didn't wait,
The future can be ours if you change your heart,
Coz I have a vacancy waiting for you to start,
Change your heart and share your love with me,
Coz each future moment just waits for us to love each other truly.

Now our love is late coz so many moments have gone,
That could have been ours to build a love that's strong,
A future filled up with love from you and from me,
But we have not yet realized that romantic possibility.

Our fate and future is written so clearly upon my heart,
But until you change your heart our tomorrow can't start,
Days and nights slip silently so far away from us,
But your heart is no closer no matter what I trust.

Every second that leaves, leaves us with a love that's late,
And another second we didn't enjoy in a together state,
Each second that stands and waits in front of me,
Is just another moment that waits for us to love each other truly.

Our fate and future lie silently in your hands,
But until you change your heart I'm just a lonely man,
The lonely nights I spend without you I can no longer count,
Coz they slipped away with just your absences and my doubts.
