[verse 1]

To you, a parting of the ways,

me, more a partin' of the waves.

You left after I mentioned wife,

nemesis of a single mans life.

[verse 2]

Up to then, it couldn't be better,

an ex, but you could forget her.

You're all my dreams come true,

All day, I spend thinkin' of you.

[chorus]

When you left, I cried for you,

you swore to stay in touch.

If you broke my heart in two,

I'd still love you twice as much.

[verse 3]

We wined an' dined an' loved,

food an' drink I'd had enough.

It all came crashin' down,

first hint of a wedding gown.

[chorus]

When you left, I cried for you,

you swore to stay in touch.

If you broke my heart in two,

I'd still love you twice as much.

[verse 4]

I wanted to turn it 'round.

too late, you'd gone to ground.

the ex, she hadn't gone far,

took you back, just as you are.

[chorus]

When you left, I cried for you,

you swore, to stay in touch.

If you broke my heart in two,

I'd still love you, twice as much.

[bridge]

I can't stop lovin' you,

I took you back today,

no matter what you do.

If single's the only way.

[chorus]

When you left, I cried for you,

you swore, to stay in touch.

If you broke my heart in two,

I'd still love you, twice as much.

[outro]

It took only a couple of years,

before everythin' went to hell.

I'm glad you stood your ground,

my husband and kids do as well.

  • I think this works smoothly as a pop vocal. Very easy listening.

    Should it be my husband and kids "are" as well?

    It's a nice twist at the end, though I think it would with or without the outro.

    Yes, initially, I had "thank you" but forgot to change the next line.

    true, but he had to get his comeuppance in the end!

    Nice lyrics Sid, really heartfelt and I think the melancholy pop arrangement fits perfectly. I love the title lyric in particular. It’s an interesting way to phrase something that’s been said so many times, and sums up the central theme so well. I agree with you, the outro is essential. It ties up the story nicely. Great job again!
