Thoses three little words
The innocent words of affection and care
He brought to her ear
Was a shallow empty promise
She returned them with a whole heart not knowing
He played her, and used her, and would do it again
He is proud of who he is, no matter who he hurts
But now she realizes, after days of hurt,
She must go on
The two of them weren't meant to be
So she tries to go on with her life
She will soon find someone who is Mr.Right
Someone who will care for her
And he will never bring her sallow, empty promises
He'll say thoses three little words
the innocent words of affection and care
And he will mean what he says when they slip
from his lips
"I love you"
