Don't cheat
For their sake
They will spend the rest of their life
Sitting awake beside their partner
Worrying if what they feel
Is true
And I know their lips are tempting
And your conscience is on vacation
But please do not give in
Because you will live too
With the guilt of your actions
The tears they will shed for you
Cannot be repaid in anyway
You can't apologize
With their lips still on yours
Sure, they may forgive
But this just teaches us something
Worse than you can imagine
For the rest of their life
They will not see love
They will see lying and deceit
And all because
You had to cheat
