What a fool I've been
Oh Yes I've been so mean
To think that I can have you
For a moment and be close to you
And I wanted you even when
I knew you belonged to another woman
While I lay cuddled up in the arms...
In the sturdy arms of my own man.
To think that you would respect me
After I practically sold myself to you for free
Was a thought, a thought too silly
Because I knew that you knew -
What a fucking slut I could be
So you kept playing on of your games
And behind my back you called me names
Told your friends what a disaster I was
A desperate soul and a whore I was
And yet I couldn't stop myself
From being drawn close to you
Or resisting my craving for you
Yes indeed - I'd sold myself for free to you
And then there came along another woman
Someone beautiful, a lady pleasant and calm
your eyes were then set for her
All the jokes that we cracked were now meant for her
And just my thought now made me a slut
And our conversations went from brief to curt
And you wouldn't blink your eye before me you hurt
yes I deserved it for I claimed to love another man
And yet I fell for you, I was tempted, I was Damned
Damned to be branded as a whore
Damned to bear a burden and be sore
Be sore till I cried my eyes out
And till I slowly drowned in the pool of my tears
As you held me at a distance and flamed my fears
My fears of what would happen if I lost you
Of what would you say to move on and away from me
Fears of loving a man who could never be mine
Fears of being mocked by him as his name I chimed.
And you ensured that I suffer with every second of time
And you made me feel that I was just a ball of slime
With a flick of your fingers you wiped me off your mind
While a new girl took your heart and you left me behind
So I was back to where I should have been
but feeling all miserable and feeling so mean
I could no longer even think of my man
I had betrayed him, maybe just in thoughts...
yet I'd given my heart to another man
So here I stand, lost and bewildered -
Confused of what had just happened
Now it was no mystery why you disrespected me
My words degraded my soul and you mocked me
I know I've lost my respect - forever this time
But please give me my heart back - that was mine
Please give me my back - that's still mine
Please give me my heart back - please be mine
Or maybe just for a day, for one single day
PLEASE JUST BE MINE... PLEASE BE MY VALENTINE
