"A" is for the apple that he gave to me But I found a worm inside "B" is for beloved that I call to him Before he left my side And "C" See what he did, that's "D" Did it to poor ol' me How could I be such an emotional fool? ("F") "G" is for the gentlemen I thought he was When he first said "Hi" ("H"-"I") "J" is for the joker that is Jimmy B The man who made me cry (that's a "C") And "K" Well, you know it's just not okay To kiss and then run away Leaving alone without leaving a letter for Langtree "M" is for the misery he left me "N" Never to return again "O," what a poor ("P!") fool I've been Queuing in line for him And "R" Are you the one for me? Yes, say you'll come back to me Why are you tempted to tease me? (Oh) You ("Y," not "U") have got to understand The value of a woman's heart ("V!") Why ("W," not "Y") did you think it was fine To "X" me from the start? And "Why?" (Yes, "Y") is the question that's on my mind Oh, why? Why did you leave me Right before reaching our zenith? (Oh) One is the number of men I've loved And two is the times I'll say it's you (it's you!) Three is the number of days you've been gone But it feels like four-times-two Eight, at the hour the sun goes down I remember life with you around I wish I had nine lives like that one (oh)
