Your eyes said it all, there were no words
I had no excuse, I had no defence
A moment of madness, but still I knew
Knew I had wronged you, knew it was me
But still I was blameless, another’s fault
The other had tempted me, she was the one
You sat there crying, wringing your hands
Silence so full of feeling it cut me deep with
layers of our love slipping away in every tear drop
I tried to tell you it meant nothing at all
Told you it was just fun, and nothing else
Talking and talking, digging a hole
I was young and a fool and knew nothing at all
I lived for the moment and thought you would always
be there to pick up the pieces when I needed you to
You slapped me quite hard and I felt the pain
but I thought it was the most I really deserved
and you would forget and all would be fine
Now I know differently, a few years have passed
You are no longer mine, and of course never were
I owned just your love and that I just spurned
