No good reason to stay

by Mr Anonymous   Jun 12, 2008


Your foot, is in the door
I ask you why, your bags are packed on the floor
You turn to me, a tear in your eye,
And say, "I'm sorry, but I can't take this anymore"

You were tired of the lies
You said you saw through my alibis
You said, you needed more
And that there was nothing worth staying for

That's why you chose to leave,
And take everything, but me
I don't remember what it was like to be
Happy, anymore

You had to escape
Had to go away
You had no good reason to stay
But if I could go back, and change my ways
I'd do it just for one more day
Of being with you, having everything OK
It's just too bad-
I wasn't a good enough reason for you to stay

    Love comes to play, when things turn rough. Genuine love cares, when there's no need.
