What Have Done Anything for You


As I walked into the coffeehouse,

I spotted her sipping tea.

She looked up with her forlorn eyes,

Her sadness clear to me.

 

She invited me to take a seat

I could tell by her mouth she had news to tell

I didn’t know what to expect

For it might not end well

 

That’s when reality hit

For those words crushed me

That we were no longer a good fit

The coffeehouse no longer seemed chatty

 

Because I love you

I did everything I could for us

You were my priority

I bought you a ring to show I was committed

Now my vision is blurry

 

Because I love you

I took you to dinner dates to your favorite places

Special surprises for my special girl

I wrote you a love letter and hid it in your purse for you to find

I always bought you your favorite ice cream from U Swirl

 

Because I love you

I showed you off any opportunity I had

I truly thought I had a goddess by my side

You opened my mind to new things

You kept me occupied

 

Because I love you

I planned our future out

Did any little thing to make you happy

But you had your doubt

Now our future won’t come true

Because you told me you don’t love me anymore
