Tug Of Love

If you love me, then you can love another.
Don't mistake the way I feel or you will soon discover
That I'm empty, there's no love in my heart for you.
If you trust me, then you should trust another.
Consider me a stepping stone and find a different lover.
Just deception, I put on a mask for you.

The Puppet Master doesn't pull my strings,
I go where I choose and take what Cupid brings.
I'll treat you so nice and break your barriers down.
Once you've given your all, then I'm no longer around.
It's the tug of love baby and I pull you in.
I won't give an inch I always play to win.
Never say that I love you, so I never lose.
'Cos I'm a heartless bastard with nothing to prove.

Now you hate me, can't cope with my rebuttal.
Your wall came down, you felt so good,
but now I've burst the bubble.
Your emotions have left you alone and confused.
So vindictive, you resent the way you feel.
Fell too quick and now all's lost, self-reproach does not appeal.
You blame me but the blame only lies with you.

So foolish, you can't deny you're so naïve.
The signs were there for all to see,
it's you who chose not to believe.
Complaisant, you were only too willing to please.
Consolation, I left you with your pride intact.
I could've said where you went wrong,
but that's a hurt that don't belong.
Forget me, it just wasn't meant to be.
