You Never, Never Loved Me

Considering the extreme scheme That we had faced, finally the supreme Evidence was at hand, in front of us Darling, you never, ever loved me It was not love that was dust It was not love that was lust Baby, you never, ever loved me You forgot your emotions in the bus You never truly cared for me Love always demonstrates wit and compassion Love is always full of sweetness and passion When it was time to prove the love You failed miserably, like the last dove Which tried to smudge my windshield You were never my shelter and my shield You ignored me when I needed you The most You dumped me when I wanted you The most Darling, you never, never loved me You left me to die under a falling tree At a critical time And that was a crime.
