“…In a sea of women both angelic and forbidden, you’ll lure the marvelously naive. Never what you want so her face will haunt while temperatures rise in the sheets. Pass her in the streets and hate the men she meets because all are far from you. Sip on that drink as it makes you think of all you failed to do. 

Love will keep you blue.”—-
