Tricked or Mistaken

Was I mistaken in my thoughts
Did I have a blunder in a belief
Did I think a touch that was not
Did I cause my very own grief

Did I dream something sincere
That dissipates with the sunrise
A fantasy made with loving care
That's gone as I opened my eyes

Was that's the plan from the start
As I got lost and totally reeled in
Pulled the rug as I neared the heart
Then quickly turn away with a grin

The Devil May Care

I can see you there making your plans and schemes
Telling those lies, filling heads with hopes and dreams
Then sitting back with a grin to let it all unfold
Rubbing your hands together over the lies you told

Now you feel much better, do you feel real good
You would you do it all again maybe if you could
Now sit in the mirror alone in your chair
Put on some makeup and brush out your hair
It was never the outside that was ever in doubt
It's what's on the inside that this is about

Now you say you're sorry and want another try
Having seen what's inside I ask myself why
So if you shed a tear the devil may care
But I don't
