The Other Woman

Honey we've been together a few years now, but the truth is Our love was counterfeit, those hugs and kisses were all useless You knew I was a good man but I got no respect I put my all into this relationship and i got nothing left I even went to God with it but he didn't tell me what I wanted to hear So it brings me to the point, when I tell you what you always feared The well of love that ran dry with you I found again But not with you, her, yes her, I'll stop beating around it then She provided abundantly with support, when i felt pityful It was never sexual between us, she managed to tap into my spiritual I used to reflect back to our good time and soak my pillows with tears Torment to my heart, to rationalize with throwing away all these years Why couldn't we work it our is the first thought that comes to mind But I'll hold back my tears, because my wounds will heal with time I know this will be hard to take so please listen man I wake up in the morning, gaze into the mirror, and see a different man Trust my words, I would never intentionally do anything to hurt your feelings I tried to work it out ans it seems like my prayer wouldn't go pass the ceiling It's not fair for me to lead you on, so I won't leave you wondering or something Honestly there is no longer an us, just you and I, becase there is another woman
