Wanna Hear a Sad Song

Sad music playin' is what I choose
Cos' I'm knee deep in a mess of blues

My baby left for the last time
And I can't seem to make it rhyme

Forever was the word I knew
He just laughed and said we're through

Pillow talk's the only talkin' we did
Say anymore well God forbid

I just heard the slammin' door
He's gone but I don't know what for

Makin' it work-I truly tried
Now I see he only lied

So crank it up and I'll sing along
To some lonesome bluesey song

Lost somewhere I go alone
That bird of love has swiftly flown





Friends I promise to get this all out of my system...these poems about heartbreak will end
