I once had a lover, we'll call her Louise Very attractive but  so hard to please She was a red haired beauty with emerald eyes I fell head over heels I cannot deny She told me she loved me but that was a crock When a  new beau came a strutting she took the walk She told me our love would last  forever She told me a lie, she thought she was clever My heart was in pieces, all tattered and torn At that point I wished I'd never been born Years  passed by when out of the blue She called , for what reason I hadn't a clue My heart had healed but still had a scar She thought she could play me - like a guitar We arranged for a place that we both could meet The next time I saw her my heart skipped a beat By this time she had gone through so many men She wanted to start all over again The candle still flickered, my heart screamed out yes She was quite a temptation to that I  confess But my head intervened, I wasn't taking this pill Too many times I'd been through this drill Although I desperately  wanted to comply The game was over, it was her turn to cry.
