I Thought I Loved You
Started with that intense eye to eye look
Next thing I knew I was hooked
Like a fish on a line
Next came those first words
In which a romantic date followed
Days pass by and then weeks
Next thing I know it’s been months on in
Thinking yes she is the one
Because I didn’t know where I was going but I knew where I had been
Been trapped in a confined box
Being kicked around
Shoved into all types of corners
I am used and abused
Who wants something that has been worn out
So as I look at her and look at me and begin to doubt
Not knowing what this can bring
But I knew I was happy
I knew I haven’t had this emotion in some time
So I get on that love ladder and begin to climb
Climbing and climbing there is no end
This girl is doing no wrong
It’s like I sprouted wings and flew
But I stopped myself and thought this is to perfect to be true
But our love was so strong as if we were put together by glue
Next thing I knew it happened all of the sudden and out the blue
A dagger straight threw my heart
Everything suddenly fell apart
I thought you was different
I thought you were the right choice
But little did I know my love for you was just a voice
I didn’t love you
I loved what you represented
I loved you were a woman of God
I loved how I made you laugh
I loved when you had a bad day I was the first one you came to
I loved how you called me babe
I loved how we had our long talks
But those were the things I loved about you
It’s funny because you weren’t even true
It’s funny how your head says you’re in love
And your heart is telling you no
It says her love is like snow
It will soon melt away
Not listening I continued with doing me
In which my heart did not agree
All the sudden my head somehow hit my knee
And realized I have strayed off course
Because I liked you with great force
And you had me running in circles as if I was a race horse
I am not in love with you
Now knowing that I am through
I simply said to myself
“Your love is like a really bad and contagious flu”
Because I thought I loved you
