All The While

(a ballad)

I think about you all the time.
It doesn’t seem that long.
It seems like only yesterday.
The memories are strong.
And when I think about you
I can’t help but smile.
You were all I ever wanted
All the while.

All the while.
All the while I thought you were in love with me.
All the while I thought I’d found what love could be.
I thought you really loved me all the while.

We met about a year ago.
I can’t forget the night.
From the moment that I saw you
Everything seemed right.
Worldliness and innocence,
Beauty, brains, and style.
I thought that you were perfect
All the while.

All the while.
All the while I thought it would be you and me.
All the while I thought our love would always be.
I thought we’d last forever all the while.

And the more I got to know you
The more I was impressed.
But it was just a game to you.
I never even guessed.
You charmed me with your sweetness,
Fooled me with your smile.
I thought you really loved me
All the while.

All the while.
All the while when I was saying I love you.
All the while you said you felt the same way too.
You told me that you loved me all the while.

I never thought you’d tell a lie,
Especially to me.
I was so in love with you
That I just couldn’t see.
How could I misjudge you so?
Miss you by a mile?
I really thought you loved me
All the while.

All the while.
All the while I loved you I just couldn’t see.
All the while you never were in love with me.
You never ever loved me all the while.
