Lyrics
10 years since he fell in love
wished he'd been good enough - for her
But he was just a younger man
didn't really understand about her - about her
Broken Hearts are hard to mend
still has the letters he meant to send - to her
But it only hurts when the sun goes down
and everyday when her memory comes around
She was young, she said she she'd wait for him
He promised he'd come back again - for her
But years passed, she couldn't wait that long
even tho she knew his heart was strong - for her - for her
