It was you
Who called me weekly on the phone, who
Saved me with a stable home
But your heart was frozen
I thought I knew what a dad would be
But when you slammed the door on me
I broke in pieces
How can you call it love
When you can't even say the word
It's all that I dreamed of
But something I never heard
I could've used a hug
But there was no one
Then it was you
Who lifted me up off the ground, who
Promised I'd be safe and sound
Then you unleashed your anger
I had a vision what a lover would be
Through black and blue it was hard to see
I broke in pieces
How can you call it love
When it stings hard and not just words
They took your word above
I never felt so hurt
I could've used a hug
But there was no one
It was you
Who wrapped me in a sister's love, who
Cried over crimes I'm the target of
Your betrayal crushed my heart
When you fell for the fairy tale
That lured with love but hate prevailed
I broke in pieces
How can you call it love
When I cried out for your protection
How can you call it love
When all you gave me was rejection
I could've used a hug
But there was no one
How can you call it love
