she cheats on me

she wakes me every morning with a touch of her hand

a soft voice says good morning dear

lips like red roses whisper my name

and i thrill to her presence so near

eyes bright as midnight a purplish gleam

and a luster that grows from her cheeks

my tears they almost show but she must never know

that i know that she cheats on me

she stand at the doorway and smiles up at me

and then she says darling

have a good day

a sweet kind of sadness swells up in my heart

as i look down at her angel face

she's hiding a secret that i help her keep

to lose her i couldn't conceive

so i just let it go

so she will never know

that i know that she cheats on me

i come home in the evening

she meets me at the door

her smile melts my anger away

a warm cup of coffee

my slippers by the chair

it's the end of another long day

i can't fight this feeling that i have for my wife

such beauty to lie and deceive

so i just let her go

so she must never know

that i know that she cheats on me.
