The other woman

I saw you heading towards your car.
Your probably going back to that pick up bar.
you know it's just not fair, how you make me hold on.
Through everything I'm not all that strong.
What does she have that you don't get from me.
I get it, you don't want to be tied down, you would rather be free.
I always felt that with you.
you just can't be true.
I saw you walking out that bar with a woman in your hands.
Funny thing is you stopped being romantic with me,now I understand.
it ain't fair...
All I do is care..
So I walked up to her place
just to see your face.
You were in shock to see me standing there.
I stood with my hands on my hips, and said " so this is how you show you care."
I then ran home and packed my bags because there is no room for three.
I couldn't believe that he could do this to me.
I thought we were getting ready to walk down the aisle.
He's been telling me he wants my child.
I guess he changed his mind just like he changes his women.
I left a note on the bed
I'm all messed up with what I saw, leaves cheating thoughts in the head.
I'm finally thinking about my needs for the first time.
Before I left, I sat there at the table and poured myself a glass of wine.
I can't believe I wasted ten years with this guy.
One who cheats, one who lies.
A whole decade ...we were supposed to marry and have a house full of children.
Now I sit here feeling absolutely broken.
I don't know how I didn't recognize he was falling out of love with me.
I stand here feeling completely ugly.
I guess we both had different dreams.
I wasn't a part of your future is what it seems.
How could I have been so stupid and so gullible...I wipe my eyes.
I'm not gonna waste any of these tears on him anymore, I'm not gonna cry.
