-every Other Guy-
You gave me this look the last time I was with you
Asked, "What?"
Made the comment, "The way you look at me."
"How's that?", I asked.
"Like I'm every other guy."
This moment caught me off guard
Don't know what to say or how to react
It is true though
Maybe it's been the space between us
Or the year that's past
Call you sweetie, or sweetheart even darling and dear
Placed you in that category of meaningless
Someone I know but don't care much about
I have no intentions of wanting those feelings back
As I get my things together
See the hurt in your eyes
You say you understand
Place a light kiss on my forehead
I walk to the door
Hesitate, look back at what I used to have
Smile when that devilish grin appears
Wink, wave goodbye, I walk out on every other guy
For My Cutie A.H. Sorry for life not working out.
