About a Boy

Here I go again

Same story different chapter

When will I get my happy ever after?

Too much time on this page I've been spending

Maybe it's time to write the ending

I've been trying to write a different version of the same song for years

Another rhyme about all the time I spend wiping the tears

That I always cry over the same guy

The one who used to bring me such joy

I should be out having the time of my life

Instead I'm here holding my pen like a knife

Writing love songs about a boy

Hot temper cold shoulder

This story's getting older and older

I've been trying to fight it but it keeps getting worse

Now the only words between us are a chorus and verse

I've been trying to write a different version of the same song for years

Another rhyme about all the time I spend wiping the tears

That I always cry over the same guy

The one who used to bring me such joy

I should be out having the time of my life

Instead I'm here holding my pen like a knife

Writing love songs about a boy

When he gets noncommunicative

That's when I'm at my most creative

As our love quickly declines

And we stop celebrating Valentine's

And we're both ignoring the warning signs

He's got nothing to say

But you can bet I have some lines

I've been trying to write a different version of the same song for years

Another rhyme about all the time I spend wiping the tears

That I always cry over the same guy

The one who used to bring me such joy

I should be out having the time of my life

Instead I'm here holding my pen like a knife

Writing love songs

Silly sad love songs

Writing love songs about a boy
