He said as he walked out the door...
I just wanted to make you smile
just wanted to make you laugh
I should have told you I had to leave
and wasn’t coming back
I never imagined you’d fall in love
even though I treated you like gold
never knew you’d cling so tight
since your hands were always so cold
liar…
He wanted to make me smile
wanted to make me laugh
because he wanted lustful leisure
without reason to come back
He knew I’d fall in love
that was what he’d planned
because only a fool in love
would forgive a heartless man
Author notes
