When I met you my head took a spin.
My brain turned to butter.
I yearned for you, both day and night.
Breathing was a chore.
I sang for you, you barely grunted.
You blinked your eyes at me.
I was the predator, you the hunted.
But then I set you free.
I turned my back, as you stood there.
As I waved to you, Good-Bye.
Walking away, without a care
Laughing, when I wanted to cry.

Hid from you for many a day.
My heart was really broken.
That was the price to pay,
Never again, was your name spoken.
These days, you’re chasing me
You see what you have lost.
But I find I like being free,
So you can go get lost!
