After all is said and done, what taints it all like a soap scum of bitterness on every sweet memory isn't that you left me or that you lied or that you changed your mind For all that I can forgive you After all, I've left and been left lied and been lied to I've even (saddest sight of all) seen love change its mind No, what hurts the most is that you offered me the life (the love) I wanted showed it to me intact, beautiful, perfect a jewel sparkling on velvet a falcon's flight a dolphin's leap a dream come true and then snatched it away casually and for no better reason than that you couldn't be bothered any more and for the theft of my dream I cannot forgive you |
