When your kisses turn from wine to water <br />The fire in your eyes lose their glow <br />When your phone rings without answer <br />All your friend say they don’t know <br />I get that old familiar feeling <br />You’ve been cheating on me again <br />That I’m left dangling on a string <br />In case it don’t work out with them <br />I’ve been down this road before <br />And know where the heartaches lie in wait <br />That you’ll come running back <br />When you’ve realised your mistake <br /> <br />Each time I say it will be different <br />That when your cheating days are through <br />I’ll have found someone else <br />To take the place of you <br />But I’m just fooling myself <br />Because I know it isn’t true <br />I’ll still be at your beck and call <br />When the red rose turns to blue <br />Its happened so many times before <br />I should be used to it by now <br />Know all the warning signs <br />Because I’ve been down this road before <br /> <br />20 Feb 1996<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/down-this-road-before/
