Always Takes Two to Tango

You loved one day and forgot the next

The phone calls stopped, and so did the texts

Didn’t even get a chance to understand the context

Just left me one day, all lonely and vexed


Does it even bother you that I’m still in love?

Does it even matter that I haven’t had enough?

I feel like a piece of junk that you just shoved

My heart hurts like it was punched with a boxing glove


I hope you’re enjoying the new depth of my hollow

But, what goes around comes around you kow

And you too will see yourself in my place tomorrow

‘cos baby it always takes two to tango


I bled so much that I have no blood pumping through my brain

I hurt so much that I can’t even feel the pain

If our love was insanity, this feels far less sane

Feels like getting run over by a subway train


Hope I never feel about anyone the way I felt about you

‘cos if everything ends this way, I’d rather die alone and blue

It’s better than dying every day my whole life through

With the feeling that you’re so close but would never come to my rescue


I hope you’re enjoying the display of my sorrow

But, don’t take me to be foolish or shallow

‘Cos you will see yourself in the same rotten place tomorrow

‘cos baby it always takes two to tango


I really have nothing more to say

I am just waiting for that blessed day

When no one’s left to make you feel okay

And you think about losing my love in dismay


But, I ain’t coming back no more, I’ve jumped that wagon

I’m done with playing the knight who rescues you from the dragon

You might have to look for someone else up for snaggin’

‘cos I know with you, the pain just goes on draggin’


I hope you have someone left to follow

Someone’s shoulder you could beg or borrow

But, you will find yourself in my place tomorrow

Cos baby it always takes two to tango
