It’s Not Fair.
The way you’re making me feel.
How can you be upset with me for breaking
your heart?
How can you try and make me feel guilty for it?
“We will never be a couple. You assured me of that time and time again. You don’t want me. You assured me of that too.”
How can you try and make me feel guilty for that?
You are the one who pursued a married woman.
What good would have come out of that?
Did you expect me to cheat on my husband?
Did you expect me to leave him?
How can you be upset that I said, “I don’t regret the way things went because I got my son out of it.”??
Why would you ever think that I would wish away my son’s existence just so I could have had a life with “The One That Got Away”?
That is where the expression comes from.
You were the one that got away.
