The Ex

I thought it would not matter,
what you did in your past,
i thought i would not care,
but i should've known better than that,

now everytime i see you,
i feel a sadness deep within,
because every moment we have shared,
has been a repeat of what has been,

i tell myself it shouldnt matter,
what you did in your past,
i tell myself you love me,
because i want us to last,

but as i look to our future,
i know the past will never fade,
it lies persistent in my thoughts,

day after day...
