A Simple Chance

I tell you that I love you
That I want to get with you
You tell me you like me 
Although not enough to go out with me
Yet you keep going with other guys
Guys that treat you like garbage 
That make you cry
You say you want to stay single 
Yet you’re with him 
When he’s just playing you
You give him one too many chances 
When I just ask for one 
All I need to make you happy is a simple 
Chance

Nicely exclaimed finish, rather wasn't sound in the context. Good try, you have the potential to improve this.
