Love's Last Chance

I can see it in your eyes
The pain he put you through
I can't imagine your hurt
His love was never true

I know you're blaming yourself
You feel you're the one who failed
Did you ever stop to think
His heart, you never held

He took advantage of you
But don't feel any guilt
It was all an illusion
He deceptively built

A flower in darkness
Won't be able to bloom
So how can you thrive
Living such a life of gloom

You were always by his side
Even when things got rough
And although you did your best
For him, it was never enough

You're worthy of no other
So he has you believing
A harsh lie from a man
So cold and deceiving

Believe me when I say this
You deserve so much more
You deserve a love
You've never felt before

Unless its tears of joy
He shouldn't make you cry
He should make your heart beat faster
Instead of it trying to die

When your heart has healed
From all that it's been through
If you give your heart to me
I will give mine to you

If this is love's last chance
You're willing to give
I promise to make it worth
Everyday you live

Have you ever seen somebody being mistreated and thought to yourself "that person doesn't deserve that" or "that person would be so much better off with somebody like me"?
