To no person goes the glory

I remember that day like yesterday
as you slowly closed the door when you were walking away
and I told myself that everything would be fine
It wasn't the end of the world, just the end of mine...

A single red rose knows no shame
yet even a rose bows down to the beauty of your name
When you came into my life, all time stood still
Was it the thrill of the hunt, or just the hunt of the thrill
"TLA" is what the tattoo said
but the "Always" part is where I got misled
I thought always meant always, not just a little while
You only laugh when I hurt, and I only hurt when you smile
Did you ever even really kind of love me at all
or did you just get a rise out of watching me fall
It's a long way down when your heart is so broken
and "I don't love you anymore" are the hardest words spoken
yet you said them so easily, so calmly to me
and you left me feeling empty because you had to fly free...

I gave all my love to a woman, and that's where I went wrong
You were my muse, my rhyme, my verse, my song
but by glorifying you, my sweet, I showed our love was a fraud
To no person goes the glory, all glory to God...
