I - She Knew Not Why

He touched her and the sparks began to fly.
She loved him at that moment,
though she knew not why.

Through her life he came and went.
She always remembered that first touch.
She loved him at that moment.

She wondered if it always required so much,
giving and giving until she could give no more.
She always remembered that first touch.

Unfortunately she's begun to feel like a whore.
His coming and going much to blame.
Giving and giving until she could give no more.

Then it washed over her, the shame,
for letting it continue through the years.
His coming and going much to blame.

She held her head up and dried her tears.
She made her decision and told him goodbye,
not letting it continue through the years.
Though she knew not why.
