This swings but is not the usual song with usual messages either.

Song of Sorts

 

I sing a song of sadness, full of tears I cry

Never to recover from that special guy.

Now I need to change the words of my little song

Because I am not spending my whole life long.

My thoughts are moving,  and like the rapid stream

I am planning on working toward a much happier dream.
