He loves me, he loves me not...

A girl sits forlornly,
her head in her hands
Tears fall from her eyes and mix with petals on the floor below her

He loves me, he loves me not...

There was no denying now,
only pity for the way it really was
Slowly it had dwindled down to bare reality
Hope was not spared

He loves me, he loves me not...

Heartache has moved in,
preparing to stay and make itself at home
Right in among the petals
The decorate the floor with lost desparation

He loves me, he loves me not...

Everything had pointed in the wrong direction
But the flowers had been her last hope
and yet even the flowers had not lied
The truth lay scattered at her feet

He loves me, he loves me not...

Sad but beautiful. Why not get some more flowers until it comes out right!

So sad, but powerful.
