Lover's Lament
She sits on the front steps
Waiting, watching
He's walked away again
Yelling, screaming
"He'll come back," she says
Hoping, praying
He always has before
Begging, pleading
She loves him
Really, truly
Doesn't he love her too?
He looks at his phone
Waiting, watching
They've had another fight
Yelling, screaming
"She'll ask me to come home," he says
Hoping, praying
It's her turn this time
Begging, pleading
He loves her
Really, truly
Doesn't she love him too?
He never came back
She never called
He walked away from her
She let him go
Waiting, watching,
Yelling, screaming,
Hoping, praying,
Begging, pleading,
Really, truly,
It's over now.
