WHY COULDN’T YOU

The day you said that you were leaving me
Is still etched within my memory.
Nothing ever hurt me half as much
As losing you and your loving touch.
You said somebody else now made you smile
And feel the things you’d lost for quite a while.
You were not happy being just a wife,
So you gave up and tried to change your life.

Why couldn’t you admit you were wrong,
And still loving me girl, all along,
Instead of leaving me to go with him
In search of pleasure on a moment’s whim?
Why couldn’t you believe in me
And our love the way it used to be?
You gambled everything and now it’s gone.
Do you still wonder where it all went wrong?

When I still see you girl, from time to time,
I can’t help but wish that you were mine.
I still long to feel you hold me tight,
And whisper words of love all through the night.
Each time I think of love, it’s always you,
But you keep saying that our love is through.
Yet I can’t help but see the tears you’ve cried,
And deep inside we know that you have lied.
