Grow Old And Lonely...

by Eibutsina   Feb 19, 2005


When the time we have shared is over and done
When our love is lost and our relationship gone
Nothing could ever, will ever hurt me more
But I will be a stronger person than I was before…
Not you’re devious acts nor your word filled lies
Will cause me tumble into that depressing demise
I will stand up tall and take it in my stride
Leaving with my dignity and in tact my pride…
You forget the one thing I’ll always have over you
My youth and my beauty, our baby boy too
So think that through before you go walking out on me
Cause it’s you who will grow old and lonely…

I know lately it’s been hard and times are tough
The road we’ve traveled has surely been rough
Don’t forget to you, who has always been true
Who gave up their dreams, everything they wanted to do…
Just to support you and help fulfill your needs
Who continued your name and who planted your seed
When you go to walk out, why don’t you think about that?
Cause once you step out, no chance of ever coming back…
Taking advantage was never one of my intentions
Guess its karmas way of repaying your own deceptions
Look at yourself in the mirror, and one back at me
Realize its you who will grow old and lonely…

I know that soon you will depart
But this time you are not taking my heart
I have faith now, I am able to see
That you’ll be the one to grow old and lonely…
