Whats Love Got To Do With It
My life is terrible. Every time I fall for someone, I get hurt. I just don't understand what I am doing wrong. I do everything I can possibly think of. With my last girlfriend, Susan, I bought here flowers, candy, dinner, expensive jewelry, I take her to movies - my treat, I write her love poems from my heart, letters when I'm not with her, I sing to her, I play slow songs for her, and I spend every waking moment with her. All I got in return was a letter saying that we were not meant to be. What I did, isn't that what someone who is in love is suppose to do for the other person? Why doesn't she love me back?
