Love Poem: What You Gonna Do

What You Gonna Do

Why are you sitting by the phone
Looking out the window
Waiting for him to come home

Woman, why are you crying
Looking in his eyes 
When you know he's lying

Said he  was out all night with a friend
Said that he loved you 
and he won't do it again

You lay  down by his side
Fooling yourself saying he's got nothing to hide

He makes love to you with passion in his eyes
You can look in them and tell he's living a lie

He puts all his loving inside of  you
He closes his eyes, like he always do

Cause that way you won't  see the truth
That he's loving another instead of you

She's  living in his head
He's making love to you
but thinking about her in your bed

Trying not to scream out her name
And you can feel it, it's a damn shame

He explodes inside of you
Don't look your way
rolls on his side like he always do

And your left feeling empty
and lonely inside

But you don't speak a word
You don't repeat what your eyes  have heard

You start to cry
Because the truth is in his eyes

Woman what you gonna to do
When the truth is standing right in front of you

You can be a good wife
and live forever in his lies

Cook his dinner and raise his kids
Ignore that other woman like you always did

Calling your phone in the middle of the night
What's done in the dark will soon come to light

But my question to you
Woman, what you gonna do

You can be a good wife
and live forever in his lies

Let the years pass you by
With her by his side

Woman, what you gonna do
When all the memories catch up with you

And their living in your head
And you start to remember, all the things that he said

And they start to haunt you
As so many ghosts do

Woman, what you gonna do
With all these memories, inside of you

Will you be a good wife
and live forever in his lies

What you gonna do
When the truth is standing right in front of you

When she's having his baby
And he's standing in front of you 
telling you she's his lady

And all the years you gave to him they are gone
And just like ten years ago
Your standing by that window all alone

I ask only one question of you
Woman
What you gonna do?
