Unfaithful
I see your eyes wander away
I watch you watch her
As her hips sway
The lure of the forbidden fruit
Is like the siren's song
Makes me feel inadequate
Makes me feel small
I find questioning myself
What makes a woman's worth?
Is it the size of her hips?
Is it the beauty of her face?
Is it her endless legs?
Is it the color of her hair?
Is it her charm or her grace?
Does it really matter
On what lies beneath?
Does it really matter
In what she believes?
Does it really matter
On the choices she makes?
Maybe I am insecure
Maybe I am just being silly
But I know what I am
And I know what I cannot be
If I can respect their territory
Why can't they respect mine?
I know you have not crossed the line
And yet in my heart I feel betrayed
Do your actions make you unfaithful?
Or is it ok if in your thoughts you stray?
Yeah you come back home to me allright
But how much of you has wandered away?
How much of you really wants to stay with me?
How much of you is really mine?
I watch you watch her
As her hips sway
The lure of the forbidden fruit
Is like the siren's song
Makes me feel inadequate
Makes me feel small
I find questioning myself
What makes a woman's worth?
Is it the size of her hips?
Is it the beauty of her face?
Is it her endless legs?
Is it the color of her hair?
Is it her charm or her grace?
Does it really matter
On what lies beneath?
Does it really matter
In what she believes?
Does it really matter
On the choices she makes?
Maybe I am insecure
Maybe I am just being silly
But I know what I am
And I know what I cannot be
If I can respect their territory
Why can't they respect mine?
I know you have not crossed the line
And yet in my heart I feel betrayed
Do your actions make you unfaithful?
Or is it ok if in your thoughts you stray?
Yeah you come back home to me allright
But how much of you has wandered away?
How much of you really wants to stay with me?
How much of you is really mine?

This is so "woman"...and it really it home....sometimes you do wonder knowing you don't really have a reason to...but a woman knows when a man's eye wanders. a woman always knows. and hence ends up being insecure. i wish we weren't granted with the powers of intuition because it is our strength and weakness at the same time..
