Sticks And Stones May Break My Bones

Sticks & stones may break my bones, your words will always hurt me

To you I wrote a piece of my heart, in letters & notes,  long many years ago

I was distraught when I learned that you left town, no longer around

Couldn't believe to be true, I was sad and blue and so into you

Kept telling myself over the years, he's never coming back, forget him

Sailing away with the thought that your heart I could never win

 

Always in my dreams you are with someone else

Never with me...

Darlin, why not me?

 

Sticks & stones may break my bones, your words will always follow me

There was so many times I searched for you, at the places we use to go

On the internet, I even went there, and left you a message, just in case

Now many years later, I still think about you in my mind

Everyone thinks I'm crazy that one day, I just might find you

Sticks and stones may break my bones, your words will always taunt me

 

Maybe baby, just maybe I'll find you one day, come what may

As the years pass by, my hair turning gray, I imagine you are totally bald

You know I loved your long hair but I don't care, I love you, anyway

 

Baby, you shook my world when we made love

Really you did but I would never admit it to you

Each time you walked by with those emerald eyes, gave me butterflies

Attracted to you right from the start, babe, you took a piece of my heart

Kept telling myself over the years, he's never coming back, forget him

 

My God, he emailed me today. I felt like a teen, butterflies in my stomach

You know it really is him, it's such a small world after all

 

Babe, I wonder if you really remember me?

Out of the blue, his name showed up on my phone, oh, what do I say?

Now I answer the phone, & it really is him, I'm so happy I could cry

Emailed me for the very last time, said I'll always be a friend in his mind

Sticks and stones may break my bones, your words will always haunt me
