She felt so empty
Ever since he said goodbye
Without saying why
Pain at times unbearable
Restful sleep she’s unable
Still it’s for the best
For their romance just shriveled
Their affair fizzled
He can’t be tethered for long
Though she knew that all along
That was a few years ago
Badly burned, she did let go
She’s given up on romance
And now she’s got other plans
But then she met him
Dapper elegant charming
To the eyes pleasing
When he’s around, her knees shake
Her heart suddenly awake
Love quickly blossomed
He’s a well-bred gentleman
Unlike the last one
And he swept her off her feet
Now she feels her life’s complete
At last goodbye misery
Her ex finally hist’ry
In her blue sky, a rainbow
As she awaits tomorrow
