Shattered Dreams
You are my only lover
We have an understanding
I don't ask you for anything
I am not demanding
I'm not the only woman
In your life
You have two children
With your wife
We were lovers
Before you got married
The weight of loving you
For years is what I've carried
You say its too hard
For you to let me go
So you keep me in your life
Hoping no one will know
You want me to go out
And date other men
You've said it before
Time and time again
Who are you to say
What is best for me?
I will not listen
To your plea
So what do you do?
You see me less and less
Keeping me at a distance
You're creating a mess!
You think that way
You're being a hero
Let me tell you your score
You get a big fat zero!
To appease yourself
You're leaving me little by little
You might as well bathe
My face with your spittle
You say that I'll always
Be your friend
But I won't do that
I can't pretend
How can you expect me
To accept what you say?
It 's another painful thing
That just gets in my way
I am alone and lonely
Long day after long day
Nothing for me to do
But get down on my knees and pray
Twice I gave you my heart
Again you intend to break it
Now I have to do something
So through this I can make it
I'm left with shattered dreams
On this winding road
No longer in your arms
I'm growing cold
You want to keep me
Only as a friend in your life
But that is slowly killing me
Slicing my heart like a knife
I can't be just your friend
Because I love you too much
Whenever you are near me
I burn for your touch
I've reached the end of the line
So I guess this is it
Nothing worth holding on to
It's time to quit
I don't like your plans
So I'll live by mine
Why should I be the only one
Not feeling so fine?
To protect myself'
I'll do whatever it takes
No matter how much
My heart aches
I really don't want
To take this fall
But there's nothing else to do
So up goes another wall
I hope you realize
What this is costing
Its like eating a cake
But you can't lick the frosting!
I'm ending it now
I don't want to see your face
I don't want a last kiss
Or a final embrace
I don't even care
If you get pissed
Its just something else
To add to your list
I'll remember the bad times
Thats how I'll stay strong
I'll hold on to the pain
For only Time knows how long
Leave me alone now
Just please stay away
Before I lose my strength
And beg you to stay!
Goodbye to you
My one and only
This is the rebirth
Of me, the sad and lonely
This really hurts me
Because I love you so much
Now I'll pray for the day to come
When I won't crave your touch.
