Thief In The Night

She came and gone like a thief in the night Though she wasn't a stranger she was my wife She robbed and stole and then broke my heart If only I knew how she really was from the start. She came in my life so many years ago At the junction of my life when I needed to grow As I had searched the world and she I did find Happy I had thought that we shared the same mind. Then I found out she was pretty face with an evil soul But sad to find out in truth that, that others also did know She had used and cheated and lied in her past And now I am not first and I know I will not be the last. Now she has taken another victim by the hand I wander how long he will be used until he will understand But then he too is also a liar a coward and a thief And sad to say his parents are the same as I do see. He has the little man syndrome as I have been told So onto a taller person he wishes upon to hold With not many hairs on his head so he stands ashamed So he keeps his head covered as though it is too rain. They don't believe in GOD so they mock him every day From the way they act to the lies that they say And what kind of an examples are they to their daughters GOD knows she isn't a good mother and he is no father. Now I think of all the life's that she has affected And also the many souls she has ruined and corrupted Leading them all down an evil and sinful path I wander if ever she hears the devil himself laugh. And years from now when all will look back at this time In part of their destruction they will see that fine line It will be remembered and talked about and held in their sight As it all began when she came and gone like a thief in the night.
