Bilingual
A is for the apple that he gave to me
But I found a worm inside
B is for beloved that I call to him before he left my side
And C, see what he did? That's D
Did it to poor ol' me
How could I be such an E-motional fool? (F)
G is for the gentlemen I thought he was
When he first said hi
H, I
J is for the Joker, that is Jimmy B
The man who made me cry
That's a C
And K
Well, you know it's just not okay
To kiss and then run away
Leaving alone without leaving a letter for L-angtree
M is for the misery he left me in
N ever to return again
O, what a poor (P), fool I've been
Q-ueuing in line for him
And R, are you the one for me?
Yes, say you'll come back to me
Why are you tempted to T-ease me? Ooh
U, why not you have got to understand
The value of a woman's heart, V?
Why W not Y, did you think it was fine to X me from the start?
And Y, yes, Y
Is the question that's on my mind
Oh, why
Why did you leave me right before reaching our Z-enith?
One is the number of men I've loved
And two is the times, I'll say it's you (it's you)
Three is the number of days you've been gone
But it feels like four times two
Eight, at the hour, the sun goes down
I remember life with you around
I wish I had nine lives like that one, ooh
