The moment I met you You captured my heart Said you were the only one for me I was the sweetest girl you ever did see Hey boy its time to admit defeat You say you’re faithful to me But in my heart I know you’re a cheat You always have an excuse whenever I call Guess you’ve found another that you enthrall Thinking of you together makes my skin crawl I can see those lies in your brown eyes Those hidden lies that I so despise I think its time to say we’re through This deceit and your lies are making me blue So this is my last goodbye I wrote you this song so it catches your eye I’m gonna move on, I’m not gonna cry But I’ll keep on lovin you till the day I die 4th November 2015

I love the emotions of love and anger and down right indignation being so poetically laid out. This woman will ultimately be fine. Great job ... CayCay

True heart never cheats as i know. You have a true heart so you will keep till the last day of your life. He was lucky but betrayed his own luck, perhaps. Beautifully done my lovely friend. Loved always,bl

A last goodbye 'lasts' long after you've walked away. It rewinds itself over and over *** Thanks for sharing these emotions, JAN.
