Promise Breaker

when I called you that night
I wasn't thinking like that
Nine months ago, my eyes were tainted with
some sadness, like I feel now
I called you up, and we talked for a few hours
I never intended this to happen, when I called
you that night
I heard in the background, "on a date" and my
pulse quickened and exploded.
We spent eight hours, staring at each-other
and talking so wonderfully
spilling about ourselves and each other
our love started so wonderfully
eight hours in a coffee shop,
by ourselves.
I wonder now, if we could even do it today.
If you would even do it today.
I asked you the other night
you didn't want to.
You'd rather have sex,
and leave socializing for another time
Rather leave our love,
for another time.
Even the sex is no good, anymore
tainted with this memory
when we used to be so close
now you don't even care
we're out of tune
and out of synch
you don't even care
I lay there, and you keep on
I wish you'd care.
I made the mistake, of falling into this love.
No, it's not gone.
I still love you, that's why I'm here
I just can't shake these tears,
eight months twenty six days ago
I asked if you felt the same,
and we were more than friends.
Lately, I get the feeling that you're changed
you don't seem to care anymore.
It's common-place, when I drive
forty five minutes into nowhere
to see you, it doesn't even seem to matter
I'm almost thinking of giving up.
It's so hard, to keep this together
holding my love under wraps
because I know you'll never love back.
I wish you would come back
and be that girl I used to know
who'd smile and cry
and turn and twist
I wish you'd tell me you loved me,
and hold me tight
Buy me flowers, and talk all night.
You never did buy me those flowers
you promised
guess you're not much
for keeping those.
