It started with one call A silly girl’s prank I shouldn’t have agreed I have my decency. You were fooled by my friend Gave you a false name She laughed with you at ease I listened with such tense. Suddenly, she was gone The phone was in my hand I heard your warm voice Reluctantly, I spoke. You didn’t realize Didn’t seem to notice It had been a tease Thus, began a tale of lies. Some things to clarify; I am a lady I have my dignity I think myself highly. But to hear you- a treat To know you more- a gift What am I to do? You know I love you. For every deception I’d given up my soul For every sweet lies I’d swallowed my pride. Caught in my own game A web of my own making My conscience haunts me The truth must be free. Will you love me for being me?

Love and Deception
It started with one call A silly girl’s prank I shouldn’t have agreed I have my decency. You were fooled by my friend Gave you a false name She laughed with you at ease I listened with such tense. Suddenly, she was gone The phone was in my hand I heard your warm voice Reluctantly, I spoke. You didn’t realize Didn’t seem to notice It had been a tease Thus, began a tale of lies. Some things to clarify; I am a lady I have my dignity I think myself highly. But to hear you- a treat To know you more- a gift What am I to do? You know I love you. For every deception I’d given up my soul For every sweet lies I’d swallowed my pride. Caught in my own game A web of my own making My conscience haunts me The truth must be free. Will you love me for being me?
