Betrayal

by Ten Feet Tall

She told him it was over
Their love had gone astray
The endless nights of crying
Just had to go away

Their love was so pure
Nothing could come between
That young man and woman
Until he had come clean

He said it was another
His heart had come to love
That night he came home
Ended with more than just a shove

She knew he had been lying
Never had to work that late
The other was the reason why
He always broke the date

He came home at all hours
With a different scent on the air
A perfume not her own
Had finally broke the pair

Her anger was so great that night
And the gun close at her side
Left nowhere for him to go
Nowhere to run and hide
