The Future

I have to let you go and set you free
We are no longer meant to be
I'm moving on with my life
But I never really got to say goodbye

In a queue  you stood so young and free
I couldn't believe that you picked me
What happened next was a blast
But we both knew it really wouldn't last

Years of lying and cheating I took
You’d of been better living your life as a crook
But each time I took you back
When really I should of given you the sack

We built a life and built a home
Pity, really I should of known
That you’d again start your little tricks
And have to go out and get your “fix”

All alone I sat, believing your lies
That is why I never cried 
Deep inside I knew you were playing
So it’s my fault for believing you really were staying

Packed your bags when I got “that” call
I told you it’s over I want no more,
Off you went, not one word said
Our life was over, finished…DEAD

A baby and new “Wife” you now have
I wish you well….I promise I'm not mad
I'm over you and what we were
Your loss really, that’s for sure

I must mention here I have someone new
Someone so much better than you
Someone who loves me in every way
Someone I know is here to stay

We’re building a future, a home and a life
You never know I might become his wife
He’s given me the things you never could
And doing all the things you knew you should

He’s shown me what a real man is
And giving me everything that is his.
I love him more than words can say
And I love what we are in every way

So goodbye N, it sure was fun
But now I'm setting off into the sun
I wish you well wherever you go
But the curtains rising, it’s time for my show…

I'm in love in a way I couldn't imagine
I'm living my life with love and passion
This next chapter is for you and me
And it all starts with you Andy….forever we’ll be xxxxxx
