I Feel Her Hurt

Memories of the past,
I felt today,
he's cheating and I know it,
was all she could say.

I will catch him, just wait and see,
and the first time in his life,
he'll wish he never met me.

Twenty five years they have 
been together, but out of 
the blue, he thinks he can do better.

Words have been said.
and lies have been told,
as this awful secret comes to unfold.

Open your eyes my dear
friend,you know better than
to do this great sin.

Sin will take you farther than
you want to go, keep you longer
than you want to stay,
and cost you more than you
want to pay.
