took me the whole way
had what I thought was love
happy to be with you
trying out new ways
things to do
& you took me the whole way
further than anyone
ever
before
pillow talking hopes wishes dreams
the secret fantasies
I’d kept deep inside
I could be without embarrassment
no shame
& you took that faith for weakness
care love kindness for granted
so I had to let you go
& you thought to punish
to tell the world what was so
aah! the secrets out of the box
there was you thinking
it was me had the badness
the world needed to know
when it was you all along
they love the gossip
but no one loves the tattle tale
