Sweet Suffering's Kiss

When I first made this promise with you I thought that as you'd said you would do, But to be gone for no more than a moment And find that my trust, you'd dented and bent? I gave you my knowledge, and then some more I thought you'd be nice and good to the core. That someday we'd triumph and find an answer To the problems we found and tried to make better. Since then, I never said a word about your betrayal, It had to be business and nothing personal, But I too never thought that your broken decision Would find me lost in heartbreak and confusion. You still smile and wave happily my way I still laugh with you like I did every day, But now, each day I feel Sweet Suffering's kiss All because you broke a seemingly small promise.
