Twice A Year Is Once Too Often

The Heartache is Gone, and So Are You
‘O, Right
You say it is my fault
‘O, Sure
You say I am to blame
‘O, Yes

If I remember right
You took the kids
In your mother’s car
And left
Without saying
Goodbye

You left me wonderin’
You left me wantin’
‘O, Right
It’s my fault

Look, here
The pain of not
Seeing my kids
Is more than an elephant
Could bear

But your mistake
Is
That you let
Ten years go by
‘O, yes you did

That forced me into a
New life
That I kinda like
Sorry

You say you want
To see me now
‘O, Sure
Maybe for the kids

But guess what?
Seeing you twice a year
Is going to be once too often
‘O, Yes it is
