A stream of hot tears sting with pain Thick-throated sobs rack my frame I cannot speak nor breathe nor think beyond Betrayed betrayed betrayed You never said an untrue word You never promised more outloud But every gesture, every touch Told me of promise, hope and trust Betrayed betrayed betrayed Too fast I flew to give my love Too easily I bared my soul I wanted to be swept away Just to be swept right out the door Betrayed betrayed betrayed It's not just you. It's my fault too. I betrayed myself by loving you. |
