How Did I Lose Her Again?

This is the blues.

The first time Olia broke up with me, I felt as if my life was over.

I thought love had ended for her and me, but good fortune was on our side.

After about two years had passed, she tried to rekindle our love.

I couldn’t believe it when Olia called me and said she wanted to see me.

 

When I went to Olia’s apartment, she could sense my uneasiness.

She spoke to me kindly, and she made me feel comfortable around her.

I didn’t expect this to happen, but somehow, she took me back.

Olia forgave me, and she gave me a chance that I didn’t deserve.

 

Even though I wanted our relationship to work, I didn’t try hard enough.

I should’ve learned from my mistakes, but I’ve screwed up my life again.

Olia dumped me for the second time, and this time she’s serious.

The reason for losing the woman I love twice is not easy to explain.

 

I’m ashamed to admit that on both occasions I was the one at fault.

And I’ve asked myself repeatedly, “How did I lose her again?”

It would be a miracle if Olia pitied me and took me back one more time,

So I really believe that love has finally ended for her and me.
