The Inevitable Break-Up Ballad!!!!

And once again, I sit here blogging, writing a break-up song. Yes, this is tacky beyond all belief.  Borderline “Taylor Swift”y,. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know.  This is not my normal style. But I needed to finish this, and get it out of my system. Writing this song was remarkably therapeutic. It made me realize that I gave it my all. And I fought harder than I should have. But now  I have closure and I know it’s time to move on to bigger and better things.  It took longer than I expected to finish this, but it’s finally where I want it. I’ll record it at some point within the next week or so. Now that this is out of my system, I’m excited to pick up a pen and see where this crazy dream leads me next!

Hap’ly Ever After (<<< Is that a Taylor Swift title, or what???)

Hard to believe, three days ago
I wrote you a long love note
My heart was burstin’ at the seams
Three days ago, it’s hard to believe

Just like that, you gave up
As I cried and tried to save us
I would’ve gone through hell and back
But you gave up, just like that
You gave up, just like that

So I’m not holdin’, not holdin’ on this time
I’m through prayin’, that you will change your mind
We could pick up the pieces, but baby, it wouldn’t matter
This ain’t no hap’ly ever after

When you call, I’ll let it ring
Leave you there wondering
And though the tears are bound to fall
I’ll let it ring, when you call
I’ll let it ring, when you call

‘Cause I’m not holdin’, not holdin’ on this time
I’m though prayin’, that you will change your mind
We could pick up the pieces, but baby, it wouldn’t matter
This ain’t no hap’ly ever after

No  I’m not holdin’, not holdin’ on this time
I’m though prayin’, that you will change your mind
We could pick up the pieces, but baby, it wouldn’t matter
This ain’t no hap’ly ever after

Hard to believe, three days ago
I wrote you a long love note
My heart was burstin’ at the seams

Three days ago, it’s hard to believe
