Keeping me silent

by MissGem   Apr 20, 2005



I see that your happy
I see she that loves you
I understand that your with her
And it’s what you have to do

I know it’s not my place
So I smile and just walk past
I’m sorry I’m still crying
But I really thought we’d last

I’m staring at the phone
With desperation in my eyes
Hoping it will ring
That you have heard my cries

It sits there silent
Like it does every night
And I cry myself to sleep
Holding my teddy tight

I just hope you treat her right
Better than you did me
Hope you tell her you love her
Hope you say it’s meant to be

Hope you remember dates
Hope you remember to call
To let her know your alright
I hope you do it all

Hope you remember to be on time
And never keep her waiting
Unlike you did with me
And tell the whole world that your dating

I just hope she’ll make you happier
Happier than I did
Hope you treat her good
Cause she is having your kid

So don’t forget to call
Just to say good-night
I know you’ll love her more
So hope you treat her right

Wonder what’s keeping my silent
Why I can look at this and smile
Because she has your baby
And he’ll be here in a while

I’m drifting away my love
Floating in the breeze
Begging things were different
Oh god help me, please……….

I won’t say a word
Let you start your new life
Be a good role model
Be good to your future wife

Things can never be the same
So I will try so hard not to cry
My former lover, best friend
Soul mate……… Good-bye.
