I try to explain to him, to help him understand

This new found love,... won't last for long, this walking hand in hand

It isn't LOVE he feels inside for his new admirer today

It's lust and mixed up feelings, which make him feel this way



How do you TELL someone you care for, this is all one big mistake

To give up their dearly loved ones, its NOT the road to take

Its not just his wife he's hurting, it's his family, children too

But this young lustful admiration, he feels... is enough to see him through



I want to EAT my words one day, and tell him he was right

But we ALL know that won't be the case, as he walks off in the night

Will he ever truly realise? the pain he leaves behind?

Does he know the devastation left? can he leave with peace of mind?



Months passed by now, and guess what? I of course was right

SHE left as fast as she had come, back off into the night

Not before she's wrecked a marriage, a family and peoples lives

Did she even stop to think about this affair, they did contrive?



I am left to pick up all the pieces, that belong to BOTH for whom I care

To guide them through, support them both, through this brief affair

The damage done, time cannot heal, but wait SHE does forgive

It's HIM that doesn't wish to make up,.... but a new life wants to live



So was it that young admirer, that stole his heart away?

Would he still have been with his family and Wife happily today?

I fear now it was far deeper than some flattery which stole his heart

I feel that it was written, these childhood loves should part



So was he so wrong after all? When he made his choice?

After all she had no say in this, he left, she had no voice

Maybe he was being kind, to leave her in this way?

Because it seems affair or not LEAVE .... HE WOULD ONE DAY!
