You made me cry tonight,
There are tears falling from my eyes,
And I can’t seem to stop them,
No matter how hard I try…
You broke my heart,
And I thought you said,
We would never part-
But baby,
You’re already gone…
It just never dawned on me,
That this is the way it would be.
Trust…
A word you speak so reverently,
Yet do not know its meaning,
Or so it seems to me…
You ask me to trust you,
Without trusting me,
How is that fair?
And this word you give,
Saying it is your bond,
How can you be so false?
Knowing what it cost me
To tell you the things I do…
It’s Okay,
Like they say,
If it’s too good to be true ,
It probably isn’t…
I just never thought,
It would pertain to you.
So go then,
Let me withdraw,
Let me fall
Back to where I belong,
Your damn world
Was always too bright
For me anyway…
And now sadly,
I see how much
I really mean to you,
I just wish you hadn’t asked me
To trust…
Then leave me here in the dust,
Wondering what I did so wrong,
To make you believe,
You couldn’t trust me…
