Why Would I
Why would I give up someone
who cares for me,
for someone who never did?
Why would I give up someone
who shows me off,
for someone who kept me hid?
Why would I give up someone
who thinks I'm worth it,
for someone who said that I'm not?
Why would I give up someone
who doesn't hurt me,
for someone who hurt me a lot?
Why would I give up someone
who compliments me,
Someone who treats me with respect.
For someone who always downgraded me.
My wants and needs,
always met with neglect.
Why would I give up someone
who's there for me.
For someone who was never there at all?
Why would I give up talking
to someone everyday.
For someone who, said I'm not
even worth a phone call.
Why would I give up someone
who doesn't disappear,
in my life they choose to stay.
For someone who everytime we got close,
would turn and run away.
Why would I give up someone
honest and faithful.
Someone to me who is true.
Why would I ever give up him,
And go back to someone like you.
