Day of Disappointment

When you cease to be amused
By all my ways
If you suddenly lose
The smile on your face
I'll know it's come
I'll know it's taken place
You'll tire of the words 
You hear so often
You'll claim you've heard
The same things all over again
And I'll dread the moment
You tell me the end
When you stop looking at me
As though you're entranced 
If you stop touching and we
Both leave the dance
I'll know I've failed
I'll know I've lost my stance
You'll feel disappointed
And you'll wonder why
You'll see we're disjointed
And wonder if you should even try
The day you question my love
Is the day I'll begin to die
