You Loved Me Then You Lied
You said you loved me one day
The next you were so forlorn
Said you made a mistake
That you don't love me now its dawn
The next day the same thing happened
You loved me all over again
This time I started dancing
As you kissed me once then ten
Yet the very next day
You broke my heart once more
Intoxicated you had lied
Angry me said there is the door'
Yet every time you ran away
You screamed out my name
I couldn't get far away
As you needed me once again
The ups and downs were stressful
I needed you too
I was so in love that
I was possessed by you
So the circles went around
For three whole years
You saying you loved me
ending up in tears
One day I decided
For good or for bad
It was time to leave you
As I felt too sad
Yet decades later my dreams speak your name
I know in my heart I'll never be the same
You said you loved me then you lied
Something in my heart has died.
