Analysis of Send Me Away
Is this the real love I know?
This pain and tears are what I sow?
Your beautiful love has changed to hatred
What about the promises you made?
This love has made me to be your maid
Send me away if you can
Foresight is what I never saw
What about my time and love?
Far behind in your heart from above
Peace of mind is what I seek now
Let's break our promise and vow
Send me away and I will allow
To err is the human
I made you my woman
I know am not perfect
Send me away
Maybe this pain will die
Leave my life and say goodbye
