MELANCHOLY
We hit it off on our blind date
Eye candy you thought I was
A bit of fluff I thought you were
Remember the eye sex,
Sweeter than honey it was!
I cottoned on love
And you received it with fever pitch
I loved you to bits, and so did you
Remember how I felt you up,
I totally loved your submission!
You ed up everything
You started playing the field
To you, all we had was fanny Adams
I had the hots for you
My all I gave it.
I forgot I was common and garden
And you were above the salt
I should have kept my powder dry
If you love me,love my dog
Even the fact that I was below the salt
