Three Little Words

Three little words that tear my defenses down
I'm held by silence and enthralled by promise
So tired of the pledge that you cannot say when
Don't want to keep giving up what makes me
You refuse to take a stance on what you say
That you believe in, that you want a future in
I'm not going to die and give in to you anymore

Three little words you keep avowing to me
Yet, you will not to do what is right and true
You expect me to give up everything I hold to
And accept without hesitation what you say
You want me to give you an eternity to come
However, I must give you myself to you now
Giving you the pieces and the keys each day

Three little words that are becoming empty
Their value decreasing and stinging my heart
I feel myself losing the warmth and soul inside
Watching you and seeing how little you care
I wish I never revealed those words to you
That you had never spoken them to me either
Because then this wouldn't be so very hard
