1800
We were young
You said you loved me but you loved her
Told me not to worry, she don’t have on me
I believed you, adored you
When she came through, u went with her
Without a sound, without a word
I was alone, I was the enemy
She laughed, you worshipped her
Until till you became old news
Stripped you of your money and your manhood
She left you worthless, without a home
She wore your ring while she had her arms wrapped around another man’s neck
I grieved yourfor months
Slept the hurt away, bathed in my remorse
And here I stand with my battle wounds engraved in my heart
You asked for my forgiveness and I forgave
I can only offer my friendship
You see, I’m a whole woman now
And I ain’t bitter no mo’
I look in your eyes and you sitting here beggin’ for my love
But now, I ain’t the old me…and I ain’t going be the new her.
