Crushed

(still in progress - first 4 lines of the refrain actually could be reminiscent

of the first 4 lines of Little Darlin’ by the Diamonds 1957)

I saw you last night with that other boy

The look on your face was the look of joy

Now where can I go my friends are all gone

I left them for you now you've gone too

I am crushed         

And I feel

No control

At the wheel

I find myself lost

My world turned and tossed  

I am crushed

Crushed

Crushed

Our love at first filled a bottomless well

Then each day became an endless dry spell

The more that I showed the less that you gave

The closer I got the further you stayed.

I am crushed 

And I feel

No control

At the wheel

I find myself lost

My world turned and tossed               

I am crushed

Crushed

Crushed

What I felt for you then may not happen again

But I can't back out now it's the life I am in

Exploring a world of hot fun and cold pain

I believe in true love  I'm just new at the game.

I am crushed 

And I feel

No control

At the wheel

I find myself lost

My world turned and tossed  

I am crushed

Crushed

Crushed
