Don’t give up, okay? I know you’ve been hurt, I know how it feels. Believe me, I do. But the feeling will pass. The tears will stop falling. Your heart will heal itself. I promise you it will, so hold on. Don’t let go, don’t lose hope because I promise you’ll find someone who will treat you right the way he never did. Someone who will never ever leave you, the way he did. He’ll be worth the wait, so hang in there because I love you and I want you to be happy.

I love this song by John O’Banion. This is one of those timeless classics that never grows old with time.

“After everything, after that, after all that we’ve been through, you’re still here, I am still alive, and we’re best friends. I can’t seem to make out why it is that I need you. Why you? Out of everyone I’ve ever had. It’s you. Maybe it’s because I see the silver lining tracing the clouds that reflect in your blue eyes. Those eyes that shine above the rest. The ones that never change their reflection. Even in the darkest of times, I still see it. Those eyes, your eyes, give me the same hope I see in you every day. If you lose hope, I lose it too. You don’t give up on me. I’ve watched so many people walk away, but you, you have always remained here beside me. Laughing, smiling, crying, screaming. You’ve been through it all. You see, while everyone is walking out, I’ll be the one person, the only person, that stays. I’m not going anywhere.”
