Romantic Fatigue |
I have to admit that I am one of the many |
Who thought that a guitar would win him a lady |
My teenage years, they were a feminine drought |
And I thought that a serenade would help out |
And it seemed to be working for a couple of years |
I wrote a few songs and they wrought a few tears |
But when I hit my twenties, it ran out of steam |
I seemed to be suffering from romantic fatigue |
And I never know which song I should play her |
Each melody is a memory of a not-forgotten failure |
So when I get out my guitar tonight to do what I do |
Remember, I probably didn’t write this song for you |
So as I have mentioned, the shelf-life was short |
The scheme wasn’t working, despite what I thought |
The ladies all left me alone in the end |
So I had to switch all the names around and then sing it again |
And every life-long love, and every best friend |
Slipped away into the past |
Take my words with caution, I can’t pretend that you’re the first |
You won’t be the last |
I never know which song I should play her |
Each melody is a memory of a not-forgotten failure |
So when I get out my guitar tonight to do what I do |
Remember, I probably didn’t write this song |
No I certainly didn’t write this song |
No I never, never wrote a song for you |
