Dream (free) 01:36
It’s not quite morning but my eyes begin to open And as I struggle to focus I feel this pain that came from a heart that’s been broken I guess it had to be a dream cause at first it seemed that you was as sweet as a cavity But as soon as reality got a grab of me you tell me I was holding you down like gravity And that all the times you chilled and laughed with me Is over and the relationship is dead like old batteries Just the other day you wanted to marry me, grow old and start a family And live happily ever after, but now I’m living a tragedy But how could you be mad at me When I filled you up with so much love that it over flowed its capacity But, I guess I was stupid just cupid’s target to hit But with you his aim was bad, but the game you had was sedusive and it Had me so hypnotized, from your lips to your hips and thighs When we kissed I could sense a vibe. With my tongue just an inch inside It made the passion intensify I just wished that I Wouldn’t have been infected with the infection of lust Cause it just made our affection a reflection of us But, all this time I thought that you was innocent To find out, you was never even interested You had me fooled thinking you was different You put me on a stage and I was played like an instrument I tried to be a gentleman, even when we got intimate What I felt was real, I never pretended it But I guess things aint always what they seem Cause what started out as "love" turned out to be a dream I'm awake!!!

Verse 1 Said I'd never let you down, said I'd never let you go Said I'd always be around to make you smile and let you know That I will always love and always be true. That I'd give my heart but I couldn’t say the same for you You wasn't nothing like I thought you was, a magnificent counterfeit You had me thinking you were all in love, But your 'all in love' was fraudulent I was blind but now I can see the truth. And I cant believe that I played the fool for you Chorus Girl I gave you my heart and you threw it away. And I should of known from the start if I gave you my heart you would break it, Break it Verse 2 God, I thought she was a blessing. But she was a lesson, On how to go bankrupt in life long investments. The love was so blissful, so artificial. And I cant believe you. You wasn't nothing like I thought you was, a magnificent counterfeit You had me thinking you were all in love, But your 'all in love' was fraudulent I was blind but now I can see the truth. And I cant believe that I played the fool for you Chorus Girl I gave you my heart and you threw it away. And I should of known from the start if I gave you my heart you would break it, Break it Bridge You know, you know, you betrayed my love now its over, its over. (Repeat.)
