Love is too unkind for me I don't think I was meant to be Part of a duo, one half of a pair With all the heartbreak and all the care. If I don't unpack the groceries, who is to say? Or what if I don't clean the toilet every day? Or what if I leave my clothes on the floor Or come in a little late through the door? Do you think my bed is cold? I have a cat, And a dog. Oh yes, it's true I'm fat And plain and without charm. They don't care. They give me affection for the cost of good fare. They don't nag, they don't turn elswhere, They know my heart and that keeps them here. So what I see of love and loss and agony Is that my life is not so bad, as I see What I lack, I can live without. I don't understand what all the fuss is about. Is it love so true if love so easily leaves? It seems broken hearts are constant fees Of passions born hot but dying cold Then many still are alone growing old. No, my friends, I think I will forget The hunt for what I've not found yet, What was never mine to find, Because for me love is just too unkind. ******************* Sorry for the double posting...I had a second thought about one of the lines. Not important. It would be so nice to have an edit funciton.
