I've Been There Before

He can tell you things you want to hear
Secrets whispered in a lover's ear
So you start building dreams
But it's not what it seems
And it all seemed so sure
I've been there before
I've been there before

He can make your heart start with a look
You let him read you like an open book
Then he betrays your trust
And all your dreams turned to dust
And I wrote the score
I've been there before
I've been there before

But this is something you can no-can-do about
No this is nothing new
I know it's something you can do without
But you've got to see it through
I've been there before
I've been there before

He stands before you he's so meek and mild
He lets you hold him like a little child
Then he tells you his fears
And you make love through the tears
Then he walks out the door
I've been there before
I've been there before
