Forgiven
He never wanted you to leave
But you chose to deceive
And what makes things worse
This time wasn't your first
He knew something wasn't right
Those times you left for the night
Then one morning he seen your neck
That was more than just a peck
Deceived
Cheated
Misdeed
Repeated
Your reply when he asked you about it
Was no and he shouldn't doubt it
But that mark was his confirmation
He said goodbye with no hesitation
The first time he had forgiven you
But the second time was his cue
The saying is three strikes your out
But he didn't want to take that route
Deceived
Cheated
Misdeed
Repeated
And now it's over twenty years later
He still thinks there was nobody greater
All this time he still has your picture
He looks and thinks , I'm glad I picked her
Although you have lost all his trust
Would you still be here if he hadn't fussed?
The best wishes to where you've gone
He hopes you've been happy this long
Deceived
Cheated
Misdeed
Repeated
Maybe one day you can talk for awhile
He will always dream of when you reconcile
