Old Song

Listening to these old songs, Telling me a story, A story about a girl, Who met a boy, Who loved the boy, Who lost the boy, Who grew up to fast, Who feels like she lost valuable time, Who knows in her heart, Should would do it again, She cried in the song, When she knew he wasn’t coming back, She was said he left, Couldn’t understand why, Didn’t want to understand why, Her friends had warned her, Told her to stay away, She didn’t listen. Now she looks back, oddly they were right. How could they have seen that? How could she have not? But leave it to a young girls heart, To blind her from the truth, How else can you teach her, To be strong, To fall, get back up, and do it again, Until she doesn’t fall again. No one knows for sure, That’s how the song ends, Does she love again? Does she leave it behind?
