You surprise me oh, my darling.
I never thought this of you.
I trusted your love to be forever
I thought you would be true.
Now you tell me you are leaving,
your bags are packed and at the door.
How could you do this to me?
I thought we had so much more
than what you say you now feel
It’s nothing compared to your feelings for her.
I don’t know what to say to you
I never thought of you as a cur.
But it’s real, you are leaving.
Never to return again, you say.
What goes around comes back
one day you will pay.
She’ll break your heart, my darling.
She’ll leave you in the dust
just like you’re leaving me;
she’ll violate your trust.
I have loved you so completely;
given everything I have to give.
I don’t know if I can go on now.
Do I even want to live?
Yes, I do, I know now,
you and I were never meant to be.
You may think you love her today
But she’ll never love you like me.

"I don't know what to say
Or even where to start
But I never would have guessed
It'd be you to break my heart"
