Hello Heartache My Old Friend

Hello heartache my old friend
Pour me another and I'll begin
Sit a spell and lift your feet
My woes of love I 'll repeat

She was the one for sure
All my love I gave to her
Bought her presents and a ring
But to her it meant nothing

Heartache how have you been
It's been awhile my old friend
You hang around even though
When in love I make you go

Just another love gone astray
So with me you like to stay
You pour me another and smile
Satisfied your with me for awhile

Goodbye heartache you must go
That sweet girl I see I got to know
Her smiles a promise I must keep
You assure me you'll return in a week

Hello heartache my old friend...

this first line reminds me of the sound of silence by Simon and Garfunkel - that is a wonderful lyric this is a fabulous but sad poem. wave goodbye to heart ache from the past and open your heart to a new love. hugs jan xxx
