136. I Don't Want To Stay Here With You

by Toni Lawrence   Sep 29, 2010


I know that you don't love me anymore.

Don't ask me to pretend anymore,
Ongoing the fights have been lately,
Never know what kind of day it will be,
Tough is just what it has become with us.

Why would I want to stay here with you knowing what I know?
Again and again I would believe you but I can't do it no more.
Not like the times before when I was still weak enough to take you back.
Time has released me enough to let go of the pain of you so I can move forward.

Tough it will not be for me anymore,
Over came my deep dark fears inside.

Say what you want but my mind is made up.
Tenderness is not what I got from you,
And I'm not giving it to you either.
You have hurt me for the last time.

Hear what I am saying I am leaving you.
Easy it wasn't for me to just let go of you,
Remembering the times and years we shared,
Erase them from my mind I must do to get over you.

With what is left of my heart I will say my last goodbye.
I loved you once but you used my love until it was just gone,
This time my heart has put up a wall so you can't hurt it anymore.
Hard this has been for both of us but we know this is what we must do.

You can carry on now with all of the other woman I know you carried on with,
Onward I carry with my life for just because there is no more us don't mean life ends.
Un-charmed is how our fairytale story end, so I don't want to stay here with you this time.
