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

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. :-)
