The Junkyard of Broken Hearts

Hey!!!
Let me tell you about a place that exists,
you might find this hard to believe!
If your heart has ever been in a "love wreck"
it is towed here indefinitely!

The shock of it all, 
to tell you the truth
is it really tore me apart-
to find out that the myth was real....
this "junkyard of broken hearts!"

This place was packed and stacked with hearts
that once had been in love-
I looked around and I knew at once
what nightmares are made of!

From top to bottom and right to left
as far as the eye could see,
this place gave a whole new meaning
to the phrase.....
"misery loves... company!"

I knew at once this was not the place
for an eternity to spend-
but heartbreaks take time
before hearts love again-
we need time to heal and then mend!

So on the highway of love
take special care
and remember
"this could be you!"
If you're breaking hearts,
one day you'll be next-
and to this junkyard
your heart will come too!!!

My advice to you,
if your love is true
and has been that way from the start-
don't cause a love wreck
or one day you'll be towed
to the
"junkyard of broken hearts!"
