Heartbreak Blues

I’ve finally realized I’m responsible for this addiction

It’s not her fault, she needs no forgiveness

She made them clear as she laid down her conditions

And as for me, my personality just had to cross them



My selfish heart still won’t let her go

She built in me a kind of confidence I’d never, and haven’t since known

And, at the end of the day she still deserves no blame

Why can’t my heart let her escape my soul



I miss the innocence of my youth

The days before my heartbreak blues

And, I miss her still to this very day

More than my words could ever explain



In her virgin ears I whispered everything

My naïve heart thought a young woman’s heart would need

But, it’s a funny thing how wisdom is never gained but through failure

And, how I never knew what I could lose until I lost her



Twenty years to figure this out seems so long

You think you make all the right turns up until their consequence prove you wrong

And, oh, as for feeling lonely, she was right all along

Even when I said she was wrong, I knew I was the one



I miss the innocence of my youth

The days before my heartbreak blues

And, I miss her still to this very day

More than my words could ever explain
