Melancholy Reprise

(Barry Katz)

A song about a young man who was emotionally betrayed by a girl he romanticized about who viewed him as just a friend, but allowed him to dote on her.

When you wrote down those words
You didn’t quite realize you’d hurt me
Will my wounds ever heal?
You’ve got the power, can’t you see?

Some say love is a dangerous game
I say its venom runs deep
Looking beyond, getting rid of the shame
You’re not the one I should keep

With a straight face you’d lie
I was too naive to have seen it
Clear my mind with a sigh
I’ve fallen inside of an endless pit

I’m much stronger than you’ll ever be
One day you’ll be struck by the truth
You’ve taken advantage of my will to please
Your actions and words are uncouth

Some say love is a dangerous game
I say its venom runs deep
Looking beyond, getting rid of the shame
You’re not the one I should keep
