My Darling

What has happened, my darling,
Why is it so dark in the world tonight?

Could it be that you don’t love me?
Because you broke my heart?

Were all those things you said just lies,
To get through my heart to my body?

Did you leave because I was a bad girlfriend,
Or because it was time to move to the next girl in line?

The way you left me has made me question
Everything that ever was…

Those words you said to me
Over the phone,
“I want us to just be friends”

That’s what all the other guys said,
But then we never spoke again,
So what will happen to us,

Will we fall apart, will we stick together,
Like the couples on a sitcom?

Will I find someone else? will you?
I saw you with those girls,

Who flirt with you all the time,
Even when we were together.
You flirted with them, too,
And they were saying,
How you go from girl to girl,

And my heart was hurting then
And I couldn’t make it stop.

I don’t want to give up on you,
But you seem to want to move on

So I guess I’ll have to let go,
And move on, too,

Even though, every time I see you
With all those girls,

My heart is pounding,
And the hurting starts
And I have to bite my lip to stop the tears.

‘Cuz it just reminds me of the time we spent together
Going to the movies

And how you held my hand,
And the way your thumb traced circles on my hand,

And on the way home, you had your shoulder around me,
And I was leaning on you,

And we were talking about everything
But saying actually nothing.

It makes me cry, just thinking about it
‘Cuz now I realize that you might not have meant it

What hurts the most
Is the way that people looked at us.

Before people looked at us as if we were cute,
‘Cuz we looked like a nice couple,

But I guess now they haven’t heard
That we broke up last night

‘Cuz they saw you with those girls, too,
And they looked at you like you were crazy,

And they looked at me with sympathy,
I couldn’t help but look away,

I’m not sure if I can face you again,
And now I don’t really want to.

Because, my darling,
I simply l love you too much,

And it hurts to see you like that…
