I Thought I Loved You

Started with that intense eye to eye look Next thing I knew I was hooked Like a fish on a line Next came those first words In which a romantic date followed Days pass by and then weeks Next thing I know it’s been months on in Thinking yes she is the one Because I didn’t know where I was going but I knew where I had been Been trapped in a confined box Being kicked around Shoved into all types of corners I am used and abused Who wants something that has been worn out So as I look at her and look at me and begin to doubt Not knowing what this can bring But I knew I was happy I knew I haven’t had this emotion in some time So I get on that love ladder and begin to climb Climbing and climbing there is no end This girl is doing no wrong It’s like I sprouted wings and flew But I stopped myself and thought this is to perfect to be true But our love was so strong as if we were put together by glue Next thing I knew it happened all of the sudden and out the blue A dagger straight threw my heart Everything suddenly fell apart I thought you was different I thought you were the right choice But little did I know my love for you was just a voice I didn’t love you I loved what you represented I loved you were a woman of God I loved how I made you laugh I loved when you had a bad day I was the first one you came to I loved how you called me babe I loved how we had our long talks But those were the things I loved about you It’s funny because you weren’t even true It’s funny how your head says you’re in love And your heart is telling you no It says her love is like snow It will soon melt away Not listening I continued with doing me In which my heart did not agree All the sudden my head somehow hit my knee And realized I have strayed off course Because I liked you with great force And you had me running in circles as if I was a race horse I am not in love with you Now knowing that I am through I simply said to myself “Your love is like a really bad and contagious flu” Because I thought I loved you © Jeremy Fennell
