Lyrics
Langtree's Lament
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A is for the apple that he gave to me
But I found a worm inside
B is for beloved that I call to him before he left my side
And C, see what he did, that’s D
And did it to poor ol’ me
How could I be such an Emotional fool? (F)
G is for the gentlemen I thought he was
When he first said hi
H-I
J is for the joker that is Jimmy B., the man who made me cry
That’s a C
And K
Well, you know it’s just not okay
To kiss and then run away
Leaving alone without leaving a letter for Langtree
M is for the misery he left me in
Never to return again
O what a poor (P) fool I’ve been, Queuing in line for him
And R, are you the one for me?
Yes, Say you’ll come back to me
Why are you tempted to Tease me? Ohh
You, Y not you, have got to Understand
The value of a woman’s heart (V)
Why, W not Y, did you think it was fine to X me from the start?
And Y, yes Y
Is the question that’s on my mind
Oh why
Why did you leave me right before reaching our Zenith?
1 is the number of men I’ve loved
And 2 is the times I’ll say it’s you (it’s you)!
3 is the number of days you’ve been gone
But it feels like four times two
8, at the hour the Sun goes down
I remember life with you around
I wish I had nine lives like that one
