He Said
Francesca Castro Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My voice was gone, but my body shouted, "Stay"
I can't believe what he had said
I can't believe what he had said
I wish you would just love me like you said
He had promised, he'd be here to stay
But now I have no choice he said
At night, the sky becomes the darkest red
This is where the fallen lay
I can't believe what he had said
My heart turns to lead
I have left a pool of gray
But now I have no choice he said
In my dreams, he isn't really dead
Sometimes I wish my nightmares would go away
I can't believe what he had said
I can't believe what he had said
