You may not know the worst of it
Maybe you don't even care
Am I just wasting time?
Is there nothing left to repair
The silence is so deafening
I can't even hear my heart
This love that we once shared is crumbling all apart

Oh Maylynn you need to know
When the love burns out, the darkness follows
Oh Maylynn I love you so
It's a bitter taste this pain I must swallow

I held on to my foolish pride
I found another place to hide
But everything comes back to you
You're the reason that I'm here
You may not even think of me
I wonder if you ever do
I know that you loved me once
I was a part of you

Oh Maylynn you need to know
When the loving stops the pain just follows
Oh Maylynn I love you so
It's a bitter taste this pain I must swallow
