I Thought I Knew U

Its a long night, i had to work the late shift. Calm and boring like any other nite. You came in from your own work. Bought a ticket and stepped aside. Every night you do the same Looking at me with that shy gaze Suddenly u gave a smirk I knew right then you weren't a jerk Now I expected you every nite Comming to see me Making my nite very brite. And you did every nite Its busy then usual Its the weeked so its usual Here you come right on time Buying your ticket and stepping aside While u waited aside rushing the customers out i tried Finally u show up infront of me Giving u my phone and address is what came from me I couldn't waite I had to call When I did U didn't answer at all Your brother did You were asleep Poor thing Hope u were thinking of me One month later We've been dating quite a bit I fell for u hard Nothing seemed amissed Two months later Something felt odd Had to get checked out I was pregnant oh my god But you did right Like a man I expected you too you got on one knee and asked me to marry you Nine months of pregnancy Here you still are Trying to hold back tears Oh you are definantly a dear Here comes our pressious baby Here it comes You cry for joy For now we have a little boy He looks like u but has my smile He is so precious our grinns turn to smiles We get our own place To raise our own To be a family In our own home Everything was fine and happy I was in lover's bliss I felt it in our kiss But then it ended just as quick It ended quick Oh god i was so blind Something i must've missed When along came that first hit Your smile hardly shows Your anger begins to grow Im getting scared even more The love you had is never more Your anger turns to hate Your hate turns to hits Im so damn scared Im not liking this one bit I feard for our son The one I thought you loved Oh you still love him But no longer love me Im black and blue Cause all the hitting And strangling from you I knew what i had to do I had to go I had to leave The love is no more I had to go on my own I thought I knew you I thought I did I thought I found love I almost thanked the heavens above You're true colors showed Now you live on your own My heart is hurt Cause all this time you were a jerk
