Enough

  I can’t understand why
I thought we would be
I thought we could be
I thought I was your number one

Take my hand and lead me
That’s what I used to say
So willing to follow you I lost my way
Lost myself
Now I don’t even know myself
When I look in the mirror I’m afraid
Afraid (scared) of the reflection I see
A stranger in my own skin

It used to be, I remember
My happiness when I was with you
More than I can express
Like a river flowing as the day is long
Never depressed
But so were the excuses I made for you
So hurt when you disappointed me

I can’t understand why
I thought we would be
I thought we could be
I thought I was your number one

How many times do I have to ask myself
When will enough be enough?
And (yet) still end up in your arms in your bed you on my mind
So dumb and stupid thinking love meant takin the abuse constantly cryin
Oh how I wanted to break away and set myself free
Cryin out every night Lord help me!
How could this be?
This day I never thought I would see
The end of you and me.

I understand what you talkin bout I've been in this situation. I was in a relationship for 11 months and I never thought we would break up on the day before our aniversery. Girl life is crazy and love is so so powerful sometimes I don't understand why fall in love at all Nequa
