Your tidal waves

The ocean tides come and go
Just as your love did.
You were here one minute and gone the next.
Was I anything special?
Or just another distraction along the road of life?
Maybe its for the best,
Your daughter won't know
How you said one thing but meant another.
And how you left her brother and me alone
Right when we needed you the most.
But its all right.
I would rather your love go,
And not come back,
Because unlike the beaches i stand on
My heart just can't take the beating anymore.
So I'm glad i loved and lost
Never to love again.
Your tidal waves won't beat me around anymore.
