A Change of Heart

A Change of Heart

You told me you wanted someone to love
Someone you could call your own
Someone to share your life with
A place where you could belong
You promised to always be there for me
You’d be my lover and my friend
That you would fulfill all my desires
Over and over and over again

You had a change of heart
You turned your back on me
You had a change of heart
It’s not with me that you want to be
You had a change of heart
I’m just a memory of your past
I’d always believed that our love would last.

Why did you tell me you wanted a life with me?
Why did you make me believe in you?
All along you had eyes for someone else
Bet you told them that you loved them too
You didn’t have to go and break my heart
And make me feel this way
It hurts to remember the love we shared
Because you went and took it all away.

You had a change of heart
You turned your back on me
You had a change of heart
It’s not with me that you want to be
You had a change of heart
I’m just a memory of your past
I’d always believed that our love would last.

Memories of you here with me
Sometimes comfort me when I’m alone
I long to have you near me
But now you are gone.
I know you’ve found another love
And with them is where you want to be
I wish you could have loved me too
Because I love you so much can’t you see?

You had a change of heart
You turned your back on me
You had a change of heart
It’s not with me that you want to be
You had a change of heart
I’m just a memory of your past
I’d always believed that our love would last.
