I held my heart like an archer’s bow Pulled the string, let the tension grow But every arrow that I shot in vain Landed far from you, yet I feel the pain The wine stains on the empty glass Reflect a love that couldn’t last I wonder now, was it all a game? Or was it something worth the flame? The nights are long, the silence screams I chase the ghosts of broken dreams Was it enough to tear me apart? Or just the echoes in my heart? What is the strongest love? Can it survive? A touch, a glance, enough to thrive? I bled for something I can’t define Was it real, or just the wine? I can’t heal, I can’t move on 'Cause I don’t know if what we had was strong Each arrow missed, but still I try To hit the truth, to understand why I poured my soul like red wine spills Drank the bitterness, swallowed the thrills But now I sit with shattered pride Wondering if I was ever on your side Did we burn bright, or just pretend? Was this the beginning, or the end? The night’s grown colder, and so have I But I can’t stop asking why Did it cut deep enough to scar? Or was it never meant to be that far? What is the strongest love? Can it survive? A look, a lie, a fragile life? I bled for something I can’t define Was it real, or just the wine? I can’t heal, I can’t move on 'Cause I don’t know if what we had was strong Arrows fade, and wine runs dry But still I wait, I wonder why The strongest love should lift me high Yet here I fall, as the days go by But now I feel the weight grow light As I ask myself, is this my fight? Now the bow feels loose in hand And the broken glass no longer stands I see the cracks, but now I smile I’ll sit with this, but just for a while Maybe the strongest love’s the one That leaves you broken, then makes you run Towards the dawn, not back again This wasn’t love, just a fleeting pain What is the strongest love? It lets you go Through heartbreak’s fire, you start to grow I bled for something I can’t define But now I know, it wasn’t mine I can heal, I can move on What we had, it wasn’t strong So here I stand, the arrows still But now my heart begins to heal The strongest love, it comes with time It wasn’t yours, it will be mine
