How Could You? *

by lost in lovee   Apr 2, 2007


You said you loved me,
And I said it too,
But why would you say it
If it really wasn't true?

How could you hold my hand,
And kiss me the way you did,
If you were gonna go behind my back,
And now she's having your kid.

How could you throw away everything we had,
For only a one night stand?
Well I guess that's just too bad.

I'm not going to sit around
Crying over your mistakes.
I thought you'd be the one
But I guess you didn't have what it takes.

I know it's gonna be hard,
But I will make it through.
Still in the back of my mind wondering,
How could you...

    I thought there seemed to be to many fillers in this one, which kind of disrupted the flow a little.
    Other than that...I LOVE it!
    The opening staza had me hooked and from then it just kept getting better.
