ADVICE TO THE LOVELORN


So often I read these poems of broken hearts
The bleeding of youth when it starts
A bit of maturity vision I might impart
Remember long ago my first bout with despair
Girl I loved so much and didn't care
Oh---and yes, in these eyes was she a vision rare
See her now and then, three broken marriages who did win?
She preferred a man more prone to lie and sin
Then there was the skating queen who lived next door
Wanted men of adventure found me to be a bore
She sits in a tavern dreaming of places on a distant shore
Should I tell her I don't dream and have been there?
Ah, but in poetry these words that I can share
And the girl who left me for a Rock and Roll star!
Just another groupie when he left with his guitar
Love when it comes doesn't break your heart or make you cry
It comes in it's own good time I know not why
And you will know it and all other loves will fade away to die
