If you truly loved me,<br />
why did you tell me lies?<br />
If you truly loved me,<br />
why did you say goodbye?<br />
Since you truly loved me,<br />
you took out a knife.<br />
Since you truly loved me,<br />
you hurt my soul,<br />
well, at least, you tried.<br />
You insisted you truly loved me,<br />
There isn’t much to say.<br />
white roses.<br />
You insisted you truly loved me,<br />
the sea never washed your pain away.<br />
Your pain was my pain,<br />
you did much to prove that wrong.<br />
Then I decided<br />
your true love was not true,<br />
your roses were not red.<br />
My heart became yours,<br />
you gave me nothing,<br />
your words were all dead.<br />
Now I’ll say,<br />
I truly loved you,<br />
even after you went crazy.<br />
I truly loved you,<br />
even when your poison nearly killed me.<br />
I had to leave you,<br />
I couldn’t bear much more.<br />
I had to leave you,<br />
after I discovered you loved me no more.<br />
