Betrayed Still
I, in the dark, thought that I was alone
but my Romeo was there
not is his person or even by phone
but by spies for him, how they dare!
Driving past, that car in the lot
backed in so I didn't see
the tag number, nobody's head?
but as I turned, it drove off from me.
And funny where it went
up the street where you were working
other cars drove through slowly,
half not knowing I knew they were lurking.
Why is he still having me watched
I'll bet he got an earful
of the sheriff's deputy that was hangin' out
I wonder if it made him tearful?
And the city police officer friend
who had brought me something to eat
probably thought it was Greg
wouldn't that have been so neat
if we were seen going inside the nurse's clinic
where there is a jar of condoms and a bed
would Romeo think we were playing doctor
the big hero cop gives me rescue breathing
to save me from dead?
If betrayal is what you want to see
my dear Romeo sweet
look into the mirror, love
the scene will not defeat
your mind's eye and desperate heart
I have not and will not betray
but you have and still do today
even though we are apart.
