You never had a "Secret"
Folder:
Ashes to Ashes So I heard from the GrapeVine
About the timed you Dined
with the possibility
of commiting infidility
and I stood Quite
maybe out of spite
to see how long you would last
without putting this on blast
and you didn't say anything
while you talked your little swing
I knew all along like everything in life
I just held back the strife
It's just my closed off ways
that let me watch you set it all ablaze
So you began your blaming games
as if I was the one causing the flames
Through it all, I've remained nothing but loyal
Sometimes to my regret, o my little miss royal
You wonder why I stand alone
and try to postpone
when I see your face I remember how you looked at me
as if I were from Tennessee
because I suggested it wasn't my fault
when you began your assault
on my heart without any remorse
for the fact you were the source
Nothing but excuses spewed out of your mouth
and my feelings for you had to go south
Respect is a fragile thing
it can leave faster than a fling
It's something you earn
but not you'll just have to wait for the return
As time goes by I want to love you as I once did
but it's hard for me to put a lid
on the fact that at one moment in time
regardless of the crime
no matter how short
you needed the support
for one moment.. my love, my feelings... all that I am
was not enough... your love was just a sham
A lie...
but I could not say Goodbye.
Now here we are, through it all, giving you all my love
once again, everyone, you are above
And how do you reward my trust?
my rejection of Lust?
My Undying Love and Support?
You just continue to play your little sport
Please... Continue to Blame me...
for washing away all the debris
You wonder why I don't believe you appreciate
when everything I do, you depreciate?
I've always loved you... and your "secrets"
no matter how much you think are discreet
are well within reach
one day I might teach
just know that I stand besides you
Perhaps one day you'll learn that we are two
Realize their is no need for your analytical review
Trust in me... is long Overdue.
