it's wise to beware of any affair
before you get too deep
our love burned bright for many a night
now it's cold and I can't sleep.
you brought me roses at the start
now it's silver dollars & bleeding hearts.
in memory dear it seems so clear
that I should have known
love for a man ain't enough of a plan
& fate would leave me on my own.
...
what might've been is a game you can't win
but it seems I continue to play.
now you're moving on, & my dreams are gone
like flowers, they withered away.
...
you said you loved me at the start,
now all I've got is a broken heart.
