Promise Unkept

why didnt he keep his promise to me?
i thought for sure he would not lie
how patient do i have to be?
when weeks with no word from him 
keeps passing me by

how can in one night he confess his love?
told me in my arms he felt like he had come home
i,ve never felt like this before
but time and distance between us exists
i feel so lost and alone

two nights maybe three he talked to me
like he had known me all his life
there is a bit of complication that keeps our souls apart
sadly that fact is im another mans wife
but its my soulmate who holds my heart
