Just A Plain and Simple Fact

I can't remember the last time
I heard "I love you" from you
it used to hurt me very much
but now I feel nothing through,
love doesn't just go away
not the kind that's true
so I'm guessing that love
is something you never knew.

You said you can fall out of love
as easily as you fall in
I guess you were never long-term
only wanting a glimpse of what had been
in the years your marriage thrived
and you managed to ruin it when
your dream of what should be
didn't live up to you again.

You did sometimes say "I love you"
when you didn't know what you meant
and I fell into the dream of yours
and so the story went...

so the plain and simple fact is this:
love is something you never knew
I believed there was something I could do
but now I don't even feel sorry for you...

just a plain and simple fact.
