Too Good To Be True

I thought that you were the one for me, you said that by my side is where you would always 
be. Obviously I see now that I was all wrong, I thought that our love would always be strong. 
I can't believe that you can just walk away from me, I thought that you loved me, and the 
love would always be. I should have known that you were too good to be true, I should have 
known that you didn't mean it when you used to say the words, "I love you." You told me 
that you would always stand by my side, can you please tell me why all that was a lie? You 
called me over the telephone and said you loved me earlier today, so why is it so hard for 
me to believe anything that you say? Maybe it's because you broke my trust and broke my 
heart, the love we had has just fallen apart. I loved you so much with all my heart, why 
didn't you tell me that you were like this from the start? You told me that for us, we was 
going to have a life brand new, but I should have known that you were just too good to be 
true.*
