Justin Hanson Poet I do not know?

Broken Down Fairytale

I can't believe I would have give it all up for you
What was I thinking

Walk off into the sunset and leave it all behind for you?
It must have been the drinking

Every time I see their faces I would have to wonder
Was it all worth it?

See them less for you, are you a good mother?

I know they see you as a friend

I can't believe I was ready to give it all up for you
What was I thinking?

Walk away from a good thing all for you
I must have been drinking

Are you just another pretty face?
Could you be one to make me happy for real?

The answer to all of my dreams
I guess I'll never know

I almost walked away
For some broken down fairytale

I almost walked away
For some broken down fairytale

I can't believe I would have give it all up for you
What was I thinking

Walk off into the sunset and leave it all behind for you?
It must have been the drinking

Rockman Pritts July 19, 2011 at 8:21 PM Sometimes it is and sometimes it isn't the drinking. Drinking is never a resolution to the problem, but sometimes there are other issues involved. Many other problems are often injected into the wellbeing of a relationship. I know what mine are but I can't possibly tell anyone what theirs is. Just know that the absence of alcohol is a start. I myself am looking for the green flag. Good luck. :-)
