fool me once.
that's all it takes.
for me to leave you,
not trust you.
keep as far away from you.

save the apologies,
spare me the excuses.
i don't care for your reasons
nor for your justifications.

once is all it takes
for me to believe that
you can do it again.

don't give me your promises,
i don't want your sweet talk,
don't whisper about the future,
and please don't sing about love.

cause i saw what you gave to her
and i know it's the same as mine.

so don't think i'm dumb,
and don't assume i'm naive.
cause once is enough for me.
to prove to you that

i'm no fool.
ugh...it's so hard to find good men these days... over it.
