Once I was a dog for you
Once, a cold-hearted tongue to your
Beauty, my beast
Dead on my feet again, once
Once you bred like the plague with me
Once, night and day
To entertain you
I’d play the fool for you, once
Now it’s all gone
I miss you here
Laughing at things
Once, we could have been something
More than bitter arguments
Which is how our romance went
Once
I loved you
Once, sat watching the door for you
Once, fell asleep on the phone waiting
’til you came home
Broken and cold to me, once
Once and never to be again
Once, you held me back
With no one to call
A friend to you, no more, once
Now it’s all gone, I miss you here
Laughing at things
Once
We could have been something
More than bitter arguments
Which is how our romance went
Once
When I loved you
