Love Poem: Get Off My Case

Get Off My Case

When I sit here at night
I start thinking of you,
I wonder where we were wrong
I thought our love was true.
You were the one
For all eternity,
I would have done anything
To keep you true to me.

Now you write me and say
You want me to give you more space,
I live a hundred miles away
Why don't you get off my case.

You said you were hurt
When I left you,
But if you think about it
You weren't very true.
When I moved away
We stayed in touch,
Then you stopped calling me
And my love drifted to suck.
So how can you claim
That you were there?
You never bothered to call
Or act like you cared.

No you write me and say
You want me to give you more space,
I live a hundred miles away
Why don't you get off my case.
