I told you you'd rise like a phoenix
I didn't know I would drown in the river
I said you were my forever
Even though at times you couldn't see it
You made me feel so clever
Even though sometimes I didn't feel it
I bet I would make a good Professor
Who in their right mind would believe it?
I want you to know I'm changing for the better,
because you steadied our relationship
I want you to know I could never forget our love,
and I'm grateful for your forgiveness
I told you you'd rise like a phoenix
I didn't know I would drown in the river
I said you were my forever
Even though at times you couldn't see it
