You Gave Me Reason

I left you,
you didn't need me anymore.
I stayed away from you,
you had someone else in your life.
I chose to give up on you,
you loved her more than me.

You gave me reason to hate you,
I didn't want to see you no more.
You gave me reason to despise you,
I hope I won't see you forever.
You gave me reason to forget you,
I wish I didn't know you.

You hurt me,
I knew you are happy with her now.
You broke my heart,
it wasn't easy to heal the wound.
You didn't love me from the start,
but I truly loved you.

I didn't give you reason to fool me,
I tried to be good to you.
I didn't give you reason to fall out of love,
I gave you everything.
I didn't give you reason to love another woman,
I was a faithful girlfriend to you.
