Here And Gone

All was well until this occurred
Our love was real and along came her,
She stole your heart away from me
And you're not helping me believe.

So what do I do when the world goes cold?
And I have no one here to hold,
No man Ive known really loved me
Its harder to love, its harder to breathe..
And what do I say when you go cold
And leave me here now all alone,
No one like you ever made me cry
You make me question, wondering why;

Just like that you turned so sour,
Had to turn on your pride, control and power
You had to put the walls up now,
You want me to ask myself how?

You play the game all too well
In a world where there is too much hell,
You can't just soften and be yourself
but next it could be you put on a shelf.

And yet I continue to love you,
I still remain loyal, honest and true
Why the hell am I still giving in
When I know you are not real within?

Ive shown my love in many ways
And proven meaning to my gaze,
But your words are like a spell
So pleasurable but poison, as well;

I know now you wont be loved,
I realize I cannot be enough -
To keep you happy just being with me
Its hurting to love, its hurting to breathe..
