Why Would You Do That?
You could have stopped for 1 minute and
You it would have made my day
– It would have been a great surprise
Would have made me laugh, smile
and feel like you missed me too
You could have just went on your way
And not told me you were close
I would never have known
And so I would have been missing you –
The same as I do every day
But your choice was
To play tricks on me
And so
Instead you
Took me down…
made me cry…
Made me wonder why you would do that?
Why did you go out of your way to let me know
That you didn’t want to see me today?
Why did you set me up
and leave my heart to bleed?
