Your Flirting Kept Me Hurting

I never knew that I could hurt So bad till I saw you flirt With a girl behind the bar Smiling brightly like a star I was gonna get a drink After work so I could think About problems in my life Till you stabbed with with a knife Of betrayal I would see At the door--It couldn't be You were gonna be at work At a meeting--what a jerk Your back turned--You didn't know How my heart sunk down below All the sadness at the door Where I almost hit the floor From the sight before my eyes How did I not recognize The signs I refused to see That was in your history My friends warned me about you But I tried to see it through Thinking it would not get worse Hoping I could just reverse Your bad habits but I guess You never tried to really bless Me with a one woman man I tried to do the best I can Now I see your old ways Hasn't changed through out the days Your deceitfulness has led You to another woman's bed I walk away--you didn't notice Now I'm frozen from the coldness That I have to live with now I do not even know how My poor heart is still beating When did your love start fleeting From my heart to other girls Wrecking my entire world
