Heartbroken Lover

I walk passed you
You walk passed me
And then stop on a dime and turn around
You walk back up to me
And treat me with a smile

I smile too
And then stop to look at you
It’s like you’re looking past me
Like you’re looking at someone new

This shouldn’t be
And you know it too
As I refuse to talk to you
You look me in the eye
You know that I’m just going to tell you a lie
Anything just to be able to finish walking by

You don’t leave
And I can see
The tears welling up in your eyes
I could bottle them up and sell them
For a dollar and a dime
But I think twice as another thought crosses my mind

Who have you told?
What have you done?
If anything at all

I threaten to kill you
And you now know
that the truth has been told
What will you do?
Ah, it’s so easy to see
You know that I won’t hurt you

And you love me
