What Will Become of Us?

What is to become of us
  now that you've given up
      on what we were and all we had?
        
How am I supposed to learn
  how to love you as "only a friend"
      when you were so much more before?
          
When are you going to keep up
  your end of the bargain and call?
      You didn't keep the first promise...
        
Why should I be the one
  to make a new beginning
      when you're the one who ended the last?
          
Who will you be the one
  to come into your life and erase me
      only to be remembered as a friend?
          
Will I make it through the day
  when I find some other girl can
      make you happier than I ever could have?
      
Can there be a time when I can
  look at you and no longer hurt
      or long for things of the past?
