Lyrics

Closure
(written by Donny B. Lord/Curly Locks Publshing/ASCAP 2009)

Verse 1:
I let a rose
Decompose
She aint coming back
Chapter's closed
Was so headstrong that things would change
Didn't see around all the burning flames
I know what I did to her
I put tears in her eyes like Lucifer
Beware the guile of the devil
Left footprints in her heart
On multiple levels
Lord knows who I tried to be
With a heart and a mind that disagree
Believe you me
Wished I could just undue
What I put her through
And begin anew
But she vanished vanished without a clue
And now there's nothing for me left to do
All black and blue
I put my memories in order
And watch them evaporate like water

Chorus:
This is the closure
Me have nothing to do
Me have nothing for me left to say
If you say it's over
Me done pack up me bag
Me be out and me be on my way
This is the closure
Now I wish that me known
Me had broken it right from the start
If you say its over than it's over
I guess this is the closure

Verse 2:
We really didn't get to say goodbye
Instead it was so cut and dry
I wont deny
You really broke my heart in two
Cause damn I really loved you boo
But you had to do
What you had to do
And I get it
But still we could have talked about it
I waited so long
My mother told me you'd moved on
So I chose to write this song
I had to be strong
I didn't want to wait in vain
I tried to minimize the pain
I found the strength
The strength that was deep within me
So then I had to set you free
And little D
Love and hate go hand in glove
Now it's just a memory of
A tainted love
I never had a chance to tell you
All that I wanted to
So..

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge:
Tell me why does love live here no more
I've been down this lonely road before
Why did we throw it all away
There was nothing wrong with you girl
I was in denial oh yes
Even though you tried to say
