new years blues

apologies for my mistake
i always knew this was true
i never did want to change
i always meant
to be used.
there seems nothing more fantastic
than being tossed
and bent around
i didn't know any better, honey
that's why i am a sad and lonely man.
but i'm a very happy clown sometimes
with very little to lose
well, i suppose
there's little i can do about that
i was playing by all the rules.
i didn't cheat, lie or break a promise
but i broke a heart -
in two,
we all grow older
but not much wiser
as we have all the love in the world.
