Melancholy

My heart will never, my heart will never mend
My heart will never, my heart will never mend
My heart will never mend
This misery knows no end
Belle and Polly took my joy again
And again there's no cure for this condition

I used to go to great lengths to forget
But I can't live like that anymore

Why pretend my heart will ever mend
My heart will never, my heart will never mend
My heart will never mend
My heart will never, my heart will never mend
Why pretend my heart will ever mend
My heart will never, my heart will never mend
My heart will never mend
My heart will never, my heart will never mend
Why pretend my heart will ever mend
My heart will never, my heart will never mend
My heart will never mend
My heart will never, my heart will never mend
Why pretend my heart will ever mend
My heart will never, my heart will never mend
My heart will never mend
Why pretend my heart will
