Damn love

Melinda Schneider


Jotting some thoughts on a blank piece of paper 
Trying to work out what it is about you 
That makes me feel like a jigsaw puzzle 
One that's missing a piece or two 

Chewing on the end of an HB pencil 
Telling myself one and one is three 
Nothing makes sense when I think about you 
It's like the full moon is following me 

Damn Love Damn Love 
That little four letter word L.O.V.E. 
Is wreaking havoc big time on my sanity 
Damn Love Damn Love 

Writing your name down in capital letters 
Seeing what it looks like next to mine 
Filling in the page with hearts and flowers 
Too far gone to reach the bottom line 

I've always been such a practical girl 
This is so unlike me 
To be a butterfly at the mercy of the wind 
I hate it I love it It's driving me crazy 

Shakespeare wrote about a million sonnets 
No wonder the poor man lost his hair 
When it comes to you there's no rhyme or reason 
I might as well throw my hands in the air
