Eighteen

EIGHTEEN

   How could you be so cruel to me
   to treat me like you did

   To build me up and let me down
   a long way down my friend

   I gave you all I had to give
   and gave myself in vain

   One more heartbreak on you list
   you'll never feel the pain

   If I should see you on the street
   and the guilt in you should spread

   Our pride means much to both of us
   pounding in our heads

   So walk on by and I won't cry
   least not for you to see

   You will never know and I won't show
    just what you meant to me.
