The News
(Part One)



The other day I got some news from a lady friend of mine
Something she said she was sorry for, I said it was ok, turns out I lied
I gave my heart, soul, and my everything to her to protect
And it happened, just like I had suspect

I knew it would, but I didn't want to know
Cause my heart for a loop, I knew it would throw
I tried to pretend that it didn't hurt a bit
But I had to get up and walk away real quick

For I didn't want her to see the tear in my eye
Or the pain and confusion I hid inside
As understandable as I tried to make it all seem
Inside my heart, agony let out a scream

Since before for that day I declared my love for her
I vowed to myself to stay true and not to wander
Temptation had arisen several times since
But I locked it all out with love's fence

I tell her she is my one and only true blue
I say, I understand, I know that it upsets her too
But now I sit thoughts heavy on my mind
How can this happen if her true love is mine

For true love means commitment soul and body
Not giving in to a quick one when I'm gone and she's lonely
The pain and confusion I feel inside my heart and mind
Have not changed my feelings of love for her I have inside

But what hurts me more, the fact that it did happen
Or that I�ve realized that I said it was ok, but I was just actin�
The pain from the news and the lie are equal to each other
Confusion surrounds me, making my head spin, making me wonder
