A friend of ours called today
She left a long message over the phone
She told me that I should look for you
Especially when I wasn’t at home
She told me of a love affair
That you started a year ago today
She said that you were so in love
And that your relationship with me has gone astray
At first, I didn’t want to believe it
I tried so hard to find a way to prove her wrong
But, now that I have found that you are in his arms
I will let you go and find a way to move on
I was so faithful to you
I loved you more than life itself
I never thought that you could be so cruel
I thought that you left that part of you on the shelf
I thought that I meant something to you
I never dreamed that I would catch you in such a lie
I feel so lost and hurt now
I feel like a part of me has died
You know, when I first met you
You said that you were heart broken and sad
But, now I know that it was all an act
I should have known better than that
I should never have let you into my heart
I wish that I was more cautious and alert
Now I know that I will never trust you again
Never again will I feel this anger and hurt
I don’t know where we went wrong
I guess it’s too late to wonder now
But, I want you to know that I will be fine
I will get by on my own, somehow
Even after all I have done for you
You felt you had to lie and cheat
Don’t touch me, don’t even look at me
This relationship is one that I will never repeat
But, before I walk out this door
I hope that in time you will understand
That all I felt for you before today
Was so much more than I had ever planned
I never thought that I would come home today
And find that our friend was right
That you had fallen out of love with me
That I was wrong and she was right
I don’t know what to do
I don’t know what to say
All I know is that I have banished you from my heart
So that I will never have to feel this way
Please don’t ever come looking for me
Don’t think that you can win me back with your lies
This relationship of ours is now over
I could care less about the tears in your eyes
It’s so clear to me now
That you were never really in love with me
I was just another lover in your collection
But, I will not be your next trophy
You really have no compassion
And now that we are through
I thank God that I am on my own
Living my life without you
