You Say... What About Me

You say you need your space, room to breathe You turn completely cold, I begin to freeze You now smile and yell I am finally free You say... What about me You say all these years I have trapped you and held you back My heart is now the train that has gone off track You say it's over and that I am barking up the wrong tree You say... What about me I tell you forget it, my feelings aren't important enough to share Even though you are here, you are no longer there You say you want me to beg on bended knees You say... What about me You say you have nothing left to give It's time for me to move on, learn to live to love or love to live I will no longer experience emotions cutting so deeply You say... What about me I feel as if three years have been wasted away Our stage in life is a tragic end to a disappointing play You say you've found the right man to ignite your heart's fire You say he will fulfill your innemost desires You say we have grown tired of one another, to this we agree You say... What about me
