Before you leave me lonely

Before you walk out on me 
And leave me in despair 
I would like to ask  
Barge you with my unanswered questions 
That have for long waited  
For your time and your attention 
 

What about the nights  
When you whispered into my ears 
The songs of our sweet love 
The promises you made on me 
And our commitments  
That I now fail to see 
 

Do those bitter-sweet memories haunt you still? 
Do you wake up in the nights
and think of me? 
Or think of what we had 
or what we could have 
If not for your lack of faith 
and a belief that we could be 
 

I believed in you 
In your promises 
In your faithful words 
In your dreams 
And so did you 
 

Now when you have lost your hope 
and you want me to lose mine 
I still believe  
in your faithlessness 
in your inability to love me 
and in a future that you can’t see.
