As I Walk Away

You thought I was some little girl
And you could play with my heart
But I am wiser than you thought
And knew your game from the start

But somehow you broke down my wall
And got underneath my skin
But that’s my entire fault
For letting you get in

For all of the times you made me cry
For every one of those tears
For all the love that I proclaimedcc
That went right through your ears

I’m leaving and not looking back
No matter what you say
Just enjoy your last sight of me
As I turn and walk away
