Hey guys.....

(It's raining ☺)

----------------

Your shoulder on my shoulder

Your hand in mine.

Your hair, like midnight

Your eyes

The words that you tell me

The favors you ask

Little things that go against

Everything I am

---

(Everything I was)

---

Calling me your friend

Standing up for me

But when you get the chance

Leaving me

I've heard what they say about you

Backstabber

Manipulated

I know, I know

---

This is what I get for being nice

For being insecure

For wanting you to like me

I'm not stupid

I know I'm being used

I know, in a way, it's wrong

---

---

But your voice

So sweet

Like molasses.

Your hand

So warm

In mine.

I can't say no to you

I can't say no to you

I won't say no to you

Because when I do as you say

For a moment

I feel okay.
