Pleasure Mistaken For Love

No chocolate 
No flowers 
Only lies 
What's the point of staying here 
The phone stop ringing 
The text stop coming 
You are busy is all I hear 
What the point of staying here 
Only tears 
 Heart  broken 
A frown is all we share 
Someone took your smile 
The truth is I never had your heart 
I never had your love 
A moment of pleasure...that's all it was 
Not love 
Just a moment 
I lost nothing 
I can't lose what I never had 
A moment of pleasure, mistaken for love
A reminder of the web of sweetness that have nothing but lies 
A trap we call love 
But it's all lies 
The darkness of pleasure 
Wrapped in lies we call love 
A moment of joy ...a moment of pleasure 
Mistaken for love
