Analysis of Fickle

Angela Crabtree 1982 (maine)



It seems to me that my heart is not being true.
How can I love more then you?
To many people getting hurt.
How can it be through,
If my love for you is true.
Fickle as can be,
You seem to stick close to me.
Is my love being true to me?
I do not want to hurt,anymore but me.
