I Wish I'd Been A Witness

By Dave (Minstrel) Sterenchock

I wish I'd been a witness,
And never taken part.
We sold our souls to the Devil,
For another broken heart.

I gave you my heart and you crushed it,
I gave you my love and it died.
At one time you were my everything,
And now you're every tear I've cried.

And then we went no contact,
You disappeared without a trace.
I'm tempted to drive by your house,
Just to see your face.

I drive by places we used to go,
And I'm looking for your car.
I'd love to see you once again,
But I don't know who you are.

I'm tired of being tested,
To see how much I can take.
To say that I believed in you,
Was my first mistake.

I wish I'd been a witness,
And never taken part.
We sold our souls to the Devil,
For another broken heart.
