You Told Me...

You told me that you were in love

You told me I was as beautiful as a mourning dove

You told me that you would be protectful

You told me that you would never be forgetful

You told me that you would call

but I sat there on my bed ready to bawl

You told me about your car

You told me you would never go far

You told me that you would never leave

You told me that I should never sit here and grieve

You told me you will come back

but why must your heart be so black?

“You Told Me…”  is about the promises that my ex boyfriend made while we were together and just before he went off to college.
