Getting On Love is something precious. Love is something dear. But love is sometimes broken, Which is something I can't bear. On the day you told me I only wanted to die. And still when people see me A tears forever present in my eye. I see the world clearer now, I've opened up my eyes. Recalling words you said to me, I know now, were all lies. I can hear the robins singing They seem very distant. Then I see your face And I awaken in an instant. People say I'll get over it. But all I can ask is when? Some say we'll get back together But I assure them never again. You have made your plans now. Nothing I do will change your mind. And now looking on years gone by, My life's been hardly kind. I see the things around me, But I don't really care. Living life alone now, Like I'm not really there I don't know what to do now I can't make up my mind. All I know is that no other man, A way to my heart will find. -KAP Maclaughlin
