When All That You Can Think About

By: Jenny Marie Aszman

When all you can think about
is how your ex lied
When all you can talk about
is the color of her eyes

When all you can feel
is the breaking of your heart
When all you can see
is you two... being torn apart

When all you wanna look at
is her beautiful face
When all you wanna do
is go back to "your special place"

I'll be there for you
and I'll help you deal
and convince you that what's happening
isn't all that's real

I'll tell you that it'll all be okay
that tomorrow it will be fine
I'll help you to remember her
and to read between her "lines"

I'll tell you to remember
the way she flipped her hair
and how she giggled playfully
when she knew that you were there

I'll help you in your time of need
remembering how it used to be
but deep inside I'll be asking myself...
"Why doesn't he love me?"

I'm always there when you need me
and I'm always available for 'chat'
but I've always been jealous of her-
why haven't you noticed that?

Whatever you need from me
please take it with care
and one day, return it-
and remember what was always there:

a heart that loved to love
a heart with things to do
a heart that never could resist
...the tempation of loving you
