I used the word 'love' where 'he' or 'she' could be used.
ONE TOO MANY
You wonder why love left you ? Packed up and went away ?
Why didn't you see it coming, when it walked out yesterday ?
Why couldn't you see with clear eyes, the love you accepted as due ?
Why do you seem so surprised, that this could happen to you ?
Chorus
One too many betrayals.
One too many lies.
One too many times love wept alone.
One too many delays.
Promise that never arrived.
One too many nights love slept alone.
Good love was always there, whenever you came home.
You never had to wonder. You never felt alone.
It finally all came together - a storm that slowly grew.
Sudden, flashing, bad weather ! You ask why this happened to you ?!
Chorus
One too many betrayals.
One too many lies.
One too many nights love wept alone.
One too many delays.
Promise that never arrived.
One too many nights love slept alone.
There's no need to cry and moan !
One too many lies turn love to stone !
