Did You See It Coming?

((I write songs, and this is one of them.
So, read it like a song? Or like a poem...
You get it, but yeah. What's a song but
a poem with background music? And
my songs don't contain fancy words.))

I said I love you,
Never once have I lied.
I adored that girl,
But the real her had died.
She wasn't herself,
So I said my goodbyes.
Did you see it coming?

Five month built it up,
One night tore it down.
I had given the news,
In the streets of the town.
A tear glistened falling,
As her eyes sparkled brown.
Were you sorry?

You text me at night,
Try to call me in the day.
You say you'll change,
But it's hard to say.
I loved you, and I still do,
But it's better this way.
You understand?

This way,
You won't have to promise.
That way,
You'll never get to break it.
I won't,
Give you another kiss.
So you can,
Relax and just sit.

I said I love you,
Never once have I lied.
I adored that girl,
But the real her had died.
She wasn't herself,
So I said my goodbyes.
Did you see it coming?
