Your Loss 8-28-98
You see me with him
And you want me back
Isn’t that a surprise?
Do you think I’ll let you walk all over me again
Break my heart into a million pieces
Then turn around and walk away
Just considering me as your “mistake”
You couldn’t be less right.
We tried to make it work
Well, I did.
Did you expect everything to fall into place?
Don’t tell me your friends things aren’t that true
` Just because you’re mad
Did you think I was going to stick around forever?
Waiting for someone to decide want to love me or not?
Yeah, I was hurt when I found out
Did you expect me to grin and bare it?
Maybe it’s easier to hide what you’re feeling
Because I sure never know.
You didn’t want to be with me
You wanted a little Saturday night fun
Yeah, it was great when it lasted.
But do you think I’d be an in-between forever?
You told everyone that I was your girl
And that you love me
Do you even know what love is?
I didn’t think so.
A year and a half tossed out
But you can’t blamed me
I know I was horrible to you
I went where you wanted to go
Was nice to your friends
I even was nice to your sister
And I couldn’t even stand her.
I put up a lot of sacrifices to be with you
What did you had done for me?
You didn’t even stand up for me
` Would that have been so hard?
We couldn’t have worked
I know this now
And I know you don’t.
The way you’re staring at me won’t work
Calling me every five minutes
Knowing that I’m off the phone with him
Isn’t going to work either.
Trying to make amends
I don’t even want to be friends.
It’s your loss
You loss me the moment you
Walked out that door
Forever.
