Classick Ending

loved Loving you... You loved liking me a lot I put everything on the table not knowing if it was stable And after debating I was able to trust that my dating and waiting for a good man would stop. But anger always kept the fighting hot Don't worry, I won't say your name, I'm not going to put you on the spot But dang, you erased me from Myspace after taking me off your "Top" Okay, so you wanna put single on your status Fine it's cool, we can scratch this and unlatch from all the attachment Relax this is not an attempt for any kind of bashing But remember what you lost when everything came crashing And it's crazy how we talked about marriage, We fought over baby names and pictured me pushing a carriage We argued over each other's characteristics And when I calculated the percentage of how many times you abandoned the debates by hanging up the phone, The statistics proved that it was less than likely that we were going to get past this. Now I'm back on the run… Remember when we used to spend hours on the phone Wishing I was home Praying that we would always have each other so we wouldn't end up alone. Did you forget how we despised missing each other? It's a surprise that we failed at being lovers Now we're not even kissing each other. Every now and then I think of you still and even Dru Hill said that we're not "Making love" Instead we're b r e a k i n g love WHY? My heart used to tell me to try You know what pain feels like, so You don't need to ask Prince what it sounds like "when doves cry" I said I wouldn't leave and I would stay if you need But when you kept cutting me, I refused to lay face down on the pavement and bleed You picked me up from the airport, even paid for my ticket, THANK YOU for all of that. If you wanted I would reimburse you for the flight, AND give you your gas back. It's crazy how everything flashed before my eyes Now I'm forgetting about you as you drift away into a black and white flashback.. But for what it's worth I'm sorry it had to end this way, If I could sort this relationhip and name it by genre, normally I would call it "Romance"... But the ending was tragic. And it dawned on me while writing this… it lost it's color and the storyline is old So I guess I'll call you a "Classic."
