I Will Never Forgive You

about

A stalker gets what he's always wanted only to learn what is truly important in life.

lyrics

I will never forgive you for leaving me
The way that you did back on Barber Street
I will never make love to, nor hold you closer
than a foolish and awkward friend

Through the slats in my window I found my true love
Sent to my eyes from the heavens above
Black hair like coal and sapphire eyes
Each day like the last a new plan I’ve devised

To catch her and say “Hey let’s go for a drink”
Today was that day, or so I did think

Oh I’ve seen from a distance she gets drunk from a thimble
I’m sure if we’d met she’d been limber and nimble
Red roses and wine, some bitter dark chocolate
At last at her door, a deep breath as I knocked it

And to my suprise her great door just flew open
He things were all missing, I stood there so broken

I will never forgive you for leaving me
The way that you did back on Barber Street
I will never make love to, nor hold you closer
than a foolish and awkward friend

Thirteen days of depression, broken, cold hearted
I peered through the bushes to where she’d departed
and what did I see, but a horrible sight
A much longer bed, a new tenant I spied

and who could imagine or be so damn clueless
to think you could fill her place just would be foolish

nightfall again, alone in my tree
a silent observer when what did I see
She was dressed like and angel so slender and long
from her head to her toes a cascade made of blond

and this time much quicker yet just as the last
as she opened her door she was warm but alas

I could never forgive her for leaving me
The way that she did back on Barber Street
I could never make love to, nor hold her closer
than a foolish and awkward friend

Now as we sit hand in hand I feel so listless
She wants me to marry her just before Christmas
Hey grey eyes still plead how they wish to be blue
Her blond hairs still missing it’s ebony hue

and now I can’t sleep without wanting to see her
my new love can’t help that I want her to be her

as she tried on her dress and the local boutique
I was so quick oh so light on my feet
I ran down the street hoping no one would find me
that’s when I hear her voice circling around me

and now as I sit, in my new poplar tree
I’ve learned it’s not love that’s important to me

Oh of course I forgive you for leaving me
the way that you did back on Barber Street
I will always be true to and hold you closer
as a distant yet awkward friend.
