"another day"
by Adrian Fosteri loved you more than you'll ever know
more than your husband ever did
or would care to show
it bleeds my heart
to see your face
everyday wishing
i was in a different place
what i cannot change
i must accept
while these screwed up feelings
in my heart
are somehow kept
but you'll play the game
it's what you've learned
to do best
you play it well
put me through hell
not a care in your eyes
or so you'd like me to believe
more beauty in these star-lit skies
than your sentiments
could ever achieve
you'll speak so rudely
with certain friends around
then act like you miss me
maybe even kiss me
if we're not in town
and you'll do that often
to make yourself look good
having a younger man's attention
the way you think you should
it's not right what you do
use me for "notice"
playing on my emotions
like an expendable service
but I take blame for part
i cannot resist
memories constantly rushing
when you're in my midst
it's hard to control
this you couldn't comprehend
if it was that easy
my will i would surely bend
but i'm tired of repetition
games that you play
my mind has become weathered
your "attention" put away
and i know that you know this
i'm not the same
i'll take partial credit
you're solely to blame
in due time
and through your actions
you'll be just another name
