I DIDN'T KNOW
I Didn't Know / Dark Angel
The cold winds blow the ice off my truck window
Why drive home ;
Changes in my life is on stop ,
My mind continues to wondering what Dark Angel is going to do next !
Tumbling walls of childhood dreams ,
Breaking glass of memories ,
Oh how all of this kills me ,
It’s a lie that “change is good”
I think I should leave that nasty past behind me ,
But it always haves away of coming back ,
It was an accident when I got with Dark Angel ,
An echoing cry accompanying my mind ,
My heart had almost gone numb ,
I feel in love with a man that I thought was true ,
But with time all he did was make me blue ,
I didn't know much about his past or his life ,
Until one day he ask me to be his wife , and I said no I was to young ,
The darkness that was in his eyes on that September night ,
He started stalking me on everything I had ever did ,
An aching future I don’t want to know ,
And yet I keep seeking now,
A way to make this pain go away that Dark Angel gave ,
Clasping hands of friends of his ,
He has all his family and friends to help him in stalking games
To watch over me ,
I keep getting by day to day ,
But by night my pains get overwhelming ,
He cries out my name as I sleep ,
Dark Angel even makes his way in my dreams ,
My heart is a part of his nasty game ;
To make me see things his way ,
Our eyes meeting through a crowd of noise of the night,
Like he has a spell on me walking around like a clown ,
With a flash of a smile upon my face like everything is OK,
Mysterious and clandestine, perhaps?
I apologize I cry with that look in his eyes ,
I didn't know my heart had been playing me as a fool ,
I didn't know I was with a man of the night .
