SKIN DEEP

Why was I so pathetic
I bet you've been laughing at me
I was such an idiot
thought you cared you see

but now I am no longer blinded
it came like a bolt out of the blue
the person that I fell in love with
it wasnt really you

I fell in love with an image
one I'd created in my head
I don't really know you at all
but I believed all the things you said

You couldn't wait to get rid of me
you didn't want to be tied down
you no longer wanted me
couldn't wait to get back on the town

I'm glad you are having so much fun
while I sit at home and weep
but what do you care about my feelings
to you they are only skin deep

My feelings don't run skin deep
they go all the way to my heart
but I don't want to live in limbo
it's time for me to depart

It won't be very easy
cos I did fall in love with you
you meant the whole world to me
but you didn't have a clue

I will always have the fondest of memories
of the times that we have shared
but I have to move forward now
I no longer want my vision impaired

when I look back on this journey
I dont look back with regret
Im glad you came into my life
Im glad that we have met
