Love Triangle

After we finished making love
My mind quickly fell to you
While he looked at me concerned
Wondering if my heart was true

I told him that I loved him
More out of duty than of truth
Because if he really knew
He would definitely hit the roof

At one time I really did love him
Until you came back into my life
You make me doubt my own heart
Causing me no end of strife

I owe him much more than this
He has always protected me
But how can I stay with him
When this isn’t where I want to be

I do not know what it is about you
That always held my heart so tight
You have been gone for so long
Yet you haunt my brain tonight

You got in touch with me lately
After more than five long years
Hearing your voice on the phone
Reduced my heart and soul to tears

I knew that this would happen
My life would slowly fall apart
I can not fool myself anymore
You have always owed my heart

How can I leave him though
Do to him what you did to me
But is it worse to keep pretending
Maybe I should set him free

I know he loves me so much
I feel it in his goodnight kiss
I wonder how he would feel
If he knew I was thinking this

I am not an evil person
I wish that I could forget you
But my heart will not let go
So I don’t know what to do

Either way someone loses
A heart will be badly broken
All because of a love triangle
And words that lie unspoken
