I lost you a year ago

Now I've found someone new

Yet, here you come back

Saying I should be with you

 

He's perfect for me:

Sweet, handsome, hilarious

You claim you've changed

And in you I must trust

 

Tell me though, how can I

Trust the man who broke my heart

After you said you'd never leave

You've got my rhyming patterns off

And stanza lines, you see?

 

He hates you for breaking

me and causing me to put up walls

He loves me unconditionally

And when he promises, he always calls

 

But, at the same time,

You know me inside and out

With you I'm comfortable

And anything I can talk to you about

 

When you called me yesterday

I was smiling the whole time

You kept telling me you've learned

And without me, life has been an upward climb

 

You looked me in the eyes and

With tears streaming down my face

You said, "You know it's going to be

Different this time. Things won't end that way."

 

And, oh, how I want to believe you

And every word you say

But how can I accept it

When the pain from last time hasn't gone away

 

If I choose to be with you

If I agree to say yes

Then I lose the perfect prospects

With him. Oh, what a mess.

 

My heart is split in two

But my brain has an opinion

It tells me with him I should stay 

And from you I should run

 

It's so obviously clear

I know what I should do

Yet, I'll probably ignore the signs

And give everything up for you
