I knew from the beginning
You were just a flirt.
And yet I fell in love with you,
Knowing I'd be hurt.
I thought I could tie you down
And make you love just one,
But how could I do something
No one else had ever done?
I know you'll never love me
And I'm trying not to cry.
For I must find the strength
To kiss the memories good-bye.
When you ask for me again,
You'll find I won't be there.
I want a love to call my own,
Not one I have to share.
For I must hide my breaking heart
Beneath a smiling face.
And though you think I never cared,
None can ever take your place.
You were just a flirt.
And yet I fell in love with you,
Knowing I'd be hurt.
I thought I could tie you down
And make you love just one,
But how could I do something
No one else had ever done?
I know you'll never love me
And I'm trying not to cry.
For I must find the strength
To kiss the memories good-bye.
When you ask for me again,
You'll find I won't be there.
I want a love to call my own,
Not one I have to share.
For I must hide my breaking heart
Beneath a smiling face.
And though you think I never cared,
None can ever take your place.
