I see you've met Mr. Right, right?
I see you're in love now
I see your still young
Well, lemme flip the other side of the coin for you

When he said Hi i was so disinterested
He was dark, short, chubby
All the features i hated in a guy
He was a no no

But his persistance got to me
I delayed, i needed to be sure
And when he was about to give up
I said Yes

The next year i said I Do
And we lived hapily ev...
Not until i got pregnant
And starved him of attention

The bad side of knowing everything about someone is
You know immediately they change
When did it go from cuddling to avoiding
From loving to forgetting

So one day i visited his office
And caught him leg spread with another lady
My pregnant core got shoken
As love and trust got broken

On his knees in tears he came begging
"For better or worse" remember, he said
"How dare you" i cried
But Was this the worse i vowed to live through?

So i let him back in
Love still intact but trust gone
I became paranoid and checked his phone
All chats wiped clean, was this a good thing?

One day he came home late
I was so furious i lashed out and slapped him
Shocked he said "happy birthday"
"I had to travel far to get you this"

In his hands i saw
The most beautiful gift ever
I stood speachless
Apologizing with tears

I knew i had to learn to trust him all over again
I was in a dark place
He caused it
But it was my duty to get out of it

Now we live in "for better", "for worse" is behind us
God! I love the way he plays with the kids
Bye the way we have 3kids now
He became the man i knew again

Cuddling came back as avoiding went blank
I forgave at his worst
Now we stronger than ever
At the end it pains to love, but pays to forgive

So just like a half naked woman
Sitting legs folded to her breast on a cold hard floor
With an arrow pierced on her back narrowly missing the heart
That, is the other side of love you must be willing to come out from...
