‘Sometimes to love one person
Isn’t enough to live on’
‘Sometimes a heart is stolen
Knowing that it’s wrong’
Your reasons are flimsy
Your excuses don’t wash with me
Sometimes love is forsaken
Betrayed and left alone
Sometimes a heart is broken
Burned like you have this one
You left me deserted
Your presence is unwanted
Sometimes life is so fickle
Just like your sullied love
Sometimes it won’t go your way
So gather up your stuff
You told her you were single
You blinded her with your lies
You thought we’d never meet, boy!
You are gonna get a surprise--
You told her you’re divorced?
You’ve got it, pal.
