songwriting?

Since You Left Me

Looking ‘round the bar I see
No one left that appeals to me
I’ve played this game before
Maybe I’ll play it ever ever more
Nothing left
Left for me to do
But go to bed and never dream of you
This is what my life seems to be
Since you left me
So I’m drunk and I can’t drive
But I’m feeling happy that I’m alive
And that’s what God made taxies for

Did you think I’d die ‘cause you were gone?
Well you were wrong
You were so wrong
I’m going places you can’t see
Since you left me


I’ve cleaned the house
And moved on out
Getting rid of all the stuff
You couldn’t bother to take
What was I supposed to make
A shrine of what you left behind?
What goes through your mind?
That guy may not be cute as you
But I bet I’d never have to do
Half the crap you always asked me to
My vision's doubled
But I see fine

Did you think I’d die ‘cause you were gone?
Well you were wrong
You were so wrong
I’m going places you can’t see
Since you left me.


This one has his degree
From someplace smothered in ivy
That one has a package bigger
Than UPS can deliver
Oh, and there’s the other guy
With the soulful soulful eyes
Who sings Barry White at karaoke
Not to mention the young one there
Who likes to run
His fingers through my hair
Or the bartender with the dangerous smile
I could make him happy for a while

Did you think I’d die ‘cause you were gone?
Well you were wrong
You were so wrong
I’m going places you can’t see
Since you left me


You make me laugh instead of cry
I’m so much better than your current guy
And the public agrees with me
What were you thinking
When you left me?

Did you think I’d die ‘cause you were gone?
Well you were wrong
You were so wrong
I’m going places you can’t see
Since you left me.
Since you left me
Since you left me
Not my fault
Since you left me
