If Once I Had Loved You

If once I had loved you,
and trusted you with my heart.
Why did you tear it apart?

If once I had loved you,
with all my good will.
Why did it all spill?

If once I had loved you,
and watched you in teh night.
Why was there that fight?

But If once I hadn't loved you,
and made you my eternal life.
Would I have been your wife?

And If once I hadn't loved you,
and I let my heart be free.
Would you have belonged to me?

But, once I did love you,
Regret that? I don't.
Love you again? I won't.
