For Whatever Reason

No one ever told me love would be so hard 
Trusting in you has left my heart scarred

Looking into the eyes of the person you thought was true 
finding out those pure eyes were lying to you 

For whatever reason he chose to be unfaithful to me 
The way I once saw him will never ever be 

I still love him, forgiving him for his mistakes 
it's my heart that he broke, and it's making me ache

How could he do this to me, I just don't understand
I thought I was his lady, and he was my man
