You Cheated

You said you would never leave me
You would stay right by my side
But I wake up this morning
And find out that you lied

I see right thru your excuses
As I listen to your lies
Your heart is filled with deceptiom
I can see it in your eyes

I've watched how you always whisper
Each time you're on the phone
And everytime you're near me
I smell his cheap cologne

I've given you all you've asked for
And surrendered you my heart
But my heart's the only one breaking
Whenever we're apart

You said you'd always love me
But I'm feeling so defeated
You didn't keep your promises
You broke them when you cheated
