In One Day

by Bettye   Nov 27, 2005


You came to me last night in a dream that I had
You told me things will pan out
You said that You Love Me and to stop being so sad
I couldn't help myself, I cried myself to sleep in my bed
Thousands of things run through my head
Of all the unspoken things I could've said
Just when I think I'm bone dry, down comes another tear drop
They keep coming, I can't make them stop
I sit here glancing at my phone, waiting for your call
That'll tell me you didn't mean what you said
And that you want me, as much as I want you
You say it needs to be this way for awhile
The words slipped off your tongue, fading and now gone...was my smile
How do you expect me to live my life?
When all that you have just done has now caused me pain and strife
You tell me to think of this as a test, that this isn't the end
When in one day, it feels like I've lost my heart, my love, my best friend
What about the times and words we both shared
When I call, are you going to look at your phone, ignore it and pretend you don't care?
All I did was love you, and I will continue to do so

Dedicated to the love of my life: Michael
