The Breakup Song

Years go by
The singers change
Same old story but
The words get rearranged
Somebody loved someone
Somebody left someone
Somebody swears it wasn't
S'pouse to end this way

CHORUS
People dance to summertime
Happy songs with happy rhymes
The melodies make you wanna drive
And sing along
Singers talk about growing up
The first kiss
And bein in love
But nothing hits as close to home
As the breakup song

Violins and I love you
If they slightly miss their mark
They ring untrue
But something 'bout goodbye
Making someone cry
Sounds to me more like
What real people do

CHORUS
People dance to summertime
Happy songs with happy rhymes
The melodies make you wanna drive
And sing along
Singers talk about growing up
The first kiss
And bein in love
But nothing hits as close to home
As the breakup song

We need to talk
This ain't working out
Can we still be friends
I found someone else
I need some space
This just feels wrong
Everybody's lived
The breakup song
