The Love I Never Had

[Verse]
Each night I'd dream her name, a silver sigh,
Her laughter echoed in the moonlit sky.
But she danced away, just a shadow play,
A love that promised more, but led me astray.
[Verse 2]
Her eyes, a sea of stars, or so it seemed,
A world where lonely hearts had often dreamed.
Yet beneath her gentle guise, there lay deceit,
A secret kept, like rain on trembling feet.
[Chorus]
For love that never was, I'll raise a cheer,
She showed her true face, shattered all my fear.
The tender lies she spoke, now set me free,
To find a love that's meant, that's truly me.
[Verse 3]
In crowded rooms, she'd glance, a fleeting thing,
Left a trail of whispered doubt in spring.
No more I'll pine away, her spell's undone,
A heart that seeks for truth won't hide or run.
[Bridge]
I see her now for who she truly is,
A siren's call with poison in her kiss.
I thank the fates she wandered far from me,
For I deserve a love that's wild and free.
[Chorus]
For love that never was, I'll raise a cheer,
She showed her true face, shattered all my fear.
The tender lies she spoke, now set me free,
To find a love that's meant, that's truly me.
