So Many Songs - Loudon Wainwright III

This is the last one, after this I’m through

When I sing this one, when I do my show,

People will hear it, the world will know

I’ve written so many songs about you

Some have been bitter, a few have been blue

And you have inspired me for the last time

Soon you’ll be banished from my heart & mind

CHORUS:

After the tears, arguements and heartaches

Could it be our love was all a mistake

The fairy tale’s ended, now we both know

Our «once upon a time"was so long ago

I’ve written so many songs about you

You said I used you, yes I guess it’s true

Whatever you did, did something to me

I was your captive, but soon I’ll be free

I’ve written so many songs about you

This is the last one, after this I’m through

It’s taken so long to finally see

My songs about you are all about me

(Chorus)
