~Favorite Breakup Song~

Don't Think Twice, It's Alright - Bob Dylan

Well, it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe

If you don't know by now
An' it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe

It'll never do, somehow

When your rooster crows at the break of dawn

Look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm trav'lin' on

But don't think twice, it's all right

And it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
That light I never knowed

An' it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road

But I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay

We never did too much talkin' anyway
But don't think twice, it's all right

So it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal

Like you never did before
And it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal

I can't hear you anymore

I'm a-thinkin' and a-wond'rin', walkin' down the road,

I once loved a woman, a child I'm told
I give her my heart but she wanted my soul

But don't think twice, it's all right

So long, honey, babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell

Goodbye's too good a word, babe
So I'll just say fare thee well

I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind
You coulda done better but I don't mind

You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don't think twice, it's all right

Hit the road Jack!

Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more. (What you say?)
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.

Oh! Woman, oh woman, don't treat me so mean,
You're the meanest old woman that I've ever seen.

I guess if you said so
I'd have to pack my things and go. (That's right)

Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.

Now baby, listen baby, don't-a treat me this-a way
Cause I'll be back on my feet some day.

Don't care if you do 'cause it's understood

You ain't got no money you just ain't no good.

Well, I guess if you say so
I have to pack my things and go. (That's right)

Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.

Don't you come back no more.
(What you say)

Don't you come back no more
(Come on baby)
Don't you come back no more

Amarillo by morning George Strait

Amarillo by morning, up from San Antone.
Everything that I've got is just what I've got on.
When that sun is high in that Texas sky

I'll be bucking it to county fair.
Amarillo by morning, Amarillo I'll be there.

They took my saddle in Houston, broke my leg in Santa Fe.
Lost my wife and a girlfriend somewhere along the way.
Well I'll be looking for eight when they pull that gate,
And I'm hoping that judge ain't blind.
Amarillo by morning, Amarillo's on my mind.

Amarillo by morning, up from San Antone.

Everything that I've got is just what I've got on.
I ain't got a dime, but what I got is mine.
I ain't rich, but Lord I'm free.
Amarillo by morning, Amarillo's where I'll be.
Amarillo by morning, Amarillo's where I'll be.

Sometimes you are the one breaking up — with someone who’s great but you don’t feel the right way about them, or maybe not any more. It can break your heart to have to break someone else’s. For those times we have:

“Blame it on the Sun” by Stevie Wonder

Where has my love gone?
How can I go on?
It seems dear love has gone away

Where is my spirit?
I’m nowhere near it,
Oh yes, my love has gone astray

But I’ll blame it on the sun,
The sun that didn’t shine,
I’ll blame it on the wind and the trees

I’ll blame it on the time that never was enough,
I’ll blame it on the tide and the sea,
But, my heart blames it on me

Who poured the love out?
What made this bitter doubt?
Is peace not here for me to see?

Wish I could tell you,
What I am feeling,
But, words won’t come for me to speak

But I’ll blame it on the sun,
That didn’t fill the sky,
I’ll blame it on the birds and the trees

I’ll blame it on the day that ended once too soon,
I’ll blame it on the nights that could not be,
But, my heart blames it on me

Also, we have:

“Free Falling” by Tom Petty

She’s a good girl, loves her mama
Loves Jesus and America too
She’s a good girl, crazy ‘bout Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend too

It’s a long day livin’ in Reseda
There’s a freeway runnin’ through the yard
And I’m a bad boy, ‘cause I don’t even miss her
I’m a bad boy for breakin’ her heart

And I’m free, I’m free fallin’

All the vampires walkin’ through the valley
Move west down Ventura Blvd
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
All the good girls are home with broken hearts

And I’m free, I’m free fallin’

I wanna glide down over Mulholland
I wanna write her name in the sky
I wanna free fall out into nothin’
Gonna leave this world for awhile

And I’m free, I’m free fallin’

[fatima]

Thanks rbmillerjr,((((((Hugs)))))

Here is the best one fatima.

The best ever...sad though...two people in love, two people saying goodbye.

Stevie Nicks / Lindsay Buckingham “Goodbye” Live version

Hope you’re ok fatima.

And when you get dumped, and it cuts like a knife, and you don’t care about self-respect, and you are not angry, you are just dying from every cell in your body every second since they left, this is your song:

“Bell Bottom Blues” (from the Layla album, and theme) by Eric Clapton (Lyrics don’t do justice to the pain in the guitar - if you don’t know this song, you have to hear it. If you just got dumped, hide the weapons, razors, and probably the cell phones first)

Bell bottom blues, you made me cry.
I don’t want to lose this feeling.
And if I could choose a place to die
It would be in your arms.

Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?
I’d gladly do it because
I don’t want to fade away.
Give me one more day, please.
I don’t want to fade away.
In your heart I want to stay.

It’s all wrong, but it’s all right.
The way that you treat me baby.
Once I was strong but I lost the fight.
You won’t find a better loser.

[Chorus 2x]

Bell bottom blues, don’t say goodbye.
I’m sure we’re gonna meet again,
And if we do, don’t you be surprised
If you find me with another lover.

[Chorus]

I don’t want to fade away.
Give me one more day please.
I don’t want to fade away.
In your heart I long to stay.

[fatima]

Thank you Yaelle (((((Hugs)))))

Ooh, cool. I am listening to it now, thanks. Still makes me cry. I was a very reluctant heartbreaker back in the day...

[fatima]

You can’t say yes to everyone.:)Only one person thing.I hear you.

[eyedigress]

That song breaks me up! The relentless pursuit never paid off. I appreciate the thread and must apologize to the ladies during that period. It was hopeless for them.

[fatima]

Gosh your getting me depressed.(((((((Hugs)))))))
