Will you please explain to me why there's another man?
How can I not sense such things when
you're the only love of my life?
Although you won't say so,
the lack of feeling shows
All of the warmth is gone;
the space between us just grows
How could a kiss give you away?
Tell me what's it that you've done?
I bet you have the answers, but you can't give me one
I used to trust you so;
lately, I just don't know
And after what I've seen,
there's no doubt left in my mind
Whatever happened to that girl whom I once fell for?
I'm hoping we'll soon meet again
And share those times like we did before
When you thought I didn't know
Which wasn't that long ago
I tried to ask you,
"Honey, why are you feeling low?"
If something's wrong, say so;
not, "I have to go"
But the real problem, though
Lies in what you'd rather do
Did you not think there'd be a chance you'll get caught with that man?
How you can do such things, I don't understand
If I have wronged you so, why can't you let me know?
Instead, you went with him; making a mess of my mind
If you don't know, then let me tell you what hurts me more
It's to insist on seeing you just one way: like I did before
When I see you with that man,
it's just more than I can stand
You left me easily
Could've made you stay
if I had not ignored all the signs
This time, I'm reaching out
Because there's just too much left unsaid
Although our love took its toll,
there won't be peace in my soul
until I know I've done enough
I can change what I've done wrong if you would tell me how;
though I fear it's been too long to make a difference now
Can't we just let go of the past so
we could start anew?
And once the worst is over, maybe you'll soon see;
despite our troubles,
we're worth it after all
