Of all the men
It has been
There’s no one
That compares to
Yet of all the men
It will be
I must accept
It’ll never be you
"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
Of all the men
It has been
There’s no one
That compares to
Yet of all the men
It will be
I must accept
It’ll never be you
I thought of us
Again today
And, as always,
You made me smile
It was a welcome break
From all the heartache
Even if only
For a while
Happy Valentine’s Day
He said
Here’s a teddy
And some flowers
I’d rather go without
She said
Than have to sit with you
For hours
Come on over
We’ll watch TV
I don’t expect
You to sleep with me
We’ll have pizza
And a drink or two
Then after that
It’s up to you
I’ve craved
Your touch
Since we met
In fact
I’ve known
Nothing else
You’ve consumed
My mind
So much so
That no
Other man
Can help
Of course
It’s sad
Don’t
We know it
But they’re just
Not ready
For us
To show it
It all
Felt better
For a while
You made
Me laugh
You made
Me smile
But now
It’s over
And
You’re gone
So again,
I’m left
All alone
You claim
You want
To know
The truth
But the truth
Is you couldn’t
Care less
All you want
Is someone
To taunt
And to leave
After making
A mess
Out of all the trouble
I get myself in to
It’s important you know
That I’ll always choose you
I don’t think I can do it
She said
I’m just too fucking scared
It’s the only way I can see
He said
For your heart to be repaired
Only halfway
Through your story
And you’re already
Beginning to bore me
Sometime later
When your story ends
I know for sure
We’ll just be friends
I can’t wait
To see you next
And hear you
Say my name
To feel
Your touch
To say
Too much
And to fall in love
Again
I know
What happened
Between us
Was just
A one time
Thing
But I hope
You know
Your Cupid’s bow
Really did
Make my heart
Sing
Back
In the beginning
There was
So much
To adore
And yet
I still ended
Up crying
On the bathroom
Floor
It’s all too easy
To fall in love
With the brilliance
Of your music
Yet for such a charming,
Handsome man
It seems you were
A bit of a prick
For getting me
To agree
You always seemed
To have the knack
But I’ve been moving on
All summer long
And now I know
I’ll never look back
You never
Made me happy
You never
Made me moan
In fact,
Your moves were crappy
So I’d just get there
On my own
I just thought
I’d call
He said
To check
That you’re ok
You are
So very kind
She said
To care for me
That way
I’ll also ask
While I’m on
He said
If there’s anything
I can do?
I’m sure
I’ll be fine
She said
To me this
Is nothing new
You’d better
Get them off
She said
Come on now
Don’t be shy
It won’t be long
Until the end of the song
And we’ll both
Be saying goodbye
Now that all
Is said
And done
I know
That you
Were never
“The one”
Love’s young dream
This is not
Nor is it
A fairy tale
It’s a bunk up,
Of sorts,
Fuelled by lust,
Of course,
Along with a few yards of ale
All that time
Heaven sent
Your lips on mine
Magnificent
I actually believed it
When you said
“I love you”
But little
Did I realise
I was at the back
Of the queue
It wasn’t written
In the stars
Or foretold through
Your wanky cards
It was just by chance
We met that day
And I wouldn’t have had it
Any other way
Xxx
It’s nice to see
How you are with me
Is in no way chauvinistic
But as for your chance
When it comes to romance
I wouldn’t be too optimistic
There’s no need
For anything fancy
Or to reinvent
The wheel
Because it won’t be
What you say to me
But how
You make me feel
As I sit here
And nurse
My beer
Full of sorrow
And regret
I realise
I’ve never
Loved anyone
As much as
The man
I’ve never met
I know I don’t
Tell you enough
Preferring to make
Remarks off the cuff
But I do love you,
You know
I know
What they say
But it’s simply
Not true
Because at the end
Of the day
There’s no one
Like you
On this, the day, for Valentine’s
I can’t help but feel
I’ve lost my mind
For there is no peace
That I can find
Now my heart is dead
And my eyes are blind
I held you once
In my arms
Yet you slipped
Right through
My fingers
Now my heart burns
For your return
As the touch
Of your hand
Lingers
