Oceans Of Happiness
I remember when I knew it was no longer me and you,
word’s from your mouth said you cared but your eye’s showed the lie.
We made love it was a chore, no love or joy, was pushed away
and made out I was the bad guy.
You walked away no looking back, I was left asking what went so wrong?
That was then this is now, I’m free to realise you played me for a fool, life is smile’s all around, now no longer at your beck and call.
Head up high frown turned upside down, back straight new friends I’ve found, old one’s still here showing I did no wrong.
Time did stop, now I use that pain as a starting block no looking behind me my future not set-in stone, no longer afraid of being alone.
Things I’ve done since you’ve been gone, chances now taken no longer afraid of you putting me down.
A prison in my mind you had confined me sentenced to a life of misery, now I’m so free rivers of happiness flows over my soul, to oceans of discovery.

You told me you could never leave
You told me you would never say goodbye
You told me you never wanted to be free
But you told me a lie—just another goodbye
Your words were empty, your promises all broken
You had me believing, but now I just cry
Your ‘I love yous’ were just lies you told”
Trying to forget but my love just won’t die
Blinded by love – so happy was I
Until the day your love proved to be a lie
I loved you—I still do, it's true
You told me and then played me for a fool
We had promises and dreams to keep
That’s what haunts me when I try to sleep
You wanted more—so you walked away
And with your new love you promise to stay
You told me
You told me
And told me again
Our love’s forever, forever without end
But your words are empty, your promises dead
You had me believing—now I’ve lost my head
You told me again—and again I believed
Now I am broken, broken and deceived
We were to be married, life together to share
Friends tried to warn me: be careful, beware
Now you’ve found another and no longer care
Left me alone and helpless with despair
But two can play just as well as one
I’ll play this game until it’s done
All’s fair they say in love and in war
But you cheated when you walked out that door
You told me
You told me
And told me again
Our love’s broken, brought to an end
you played me for a fool
used my feelings as the tool
to open my heart.
Once my heart was overflowing,
once my love was ever growing,
you showed me your true colors.
like a surgeon you took your time,
dissected every corner of my mind,
till I was lost in emotion.
my love was all a game to you,
but my feelings were true,
and now I'm paying the price
for falling so deeply in love with you.
they say what goes around
will eventually come around,
understand.
the unending pain I feel,
will soon be over and I'll heal.
understand.
but bad Karma will follow you
everywhere you go.
you played me for a fool,
used my feelings as the tool
to open my heart.
Deceiver.
In a moment of euphoria
You offered to erase my past
While prolonging the present.
You promised eternal life
Played me for a fool
Deceived me into believing
That time does not count.
Yet, the infinite ticking
Of the clock spells betrayal.
Now you run away from me!
Disillusioned, I struggle
In your wake…breathless.
