A river flowing
Rolling hills
Dew dropped roses
Give you thrills
Leaving home
Not alone
Hold his hand
Don't let him go
He's all yours
And only yours
not hers
and you smile
My love
I hate to tell you
It takes two to tango
Yes girl, it takes two
Blame it on him
Too much love, too fast
You knew after that
It wouldn't last
Kiss him and tell him
It's not you it's me
And that boy will tell you
He's glad that he's free
Leave you with the baby
Not a friend in the world
And after that party
Last night, he hurled
Found another girl
Did the same god damn thing
Doesn't give true love
A chance to take wing

Natural rhythm and rhyme scheme, I'm loving the short "less is more" lines which brim with honesty and truth. Starts out as a fairytale them turns sour, as so many things in life.
Thanks for the entry!
