If I saw that you were crying,

I would kiss away your tears,

And if I saw you trembling,

I would hold your hand through your fears,

Would you do the same for me?

If I saw you looking down,

No smile upon your face,

Turn around your frown

Hold you tight in a warm embrace

Would you do the same for me?

If I saw that you were struggling

I would always be there to help sort things out

Remove the things that were troubling

Beyond any shadow of a doubt,

Would you do the same for me?

You pretend that you love me

And in your mind, I am sure you do

But your actions don’t show that to me,

Your love and consideration seem a bit untrue

So would you do the same for me?

I don’t think so,

You just take advantage of me.

Till next time,

Calvin
