You walked out and my world caved in
I couldn’t get back on my feet again
I tried self-help books, even meditation
Searched the want-ads out of desperation
The classified said, attention broken hearts
Meet at murphy’s lounge at 8:00 sharp
I got there early and the man at the door
Said, we’ve got the cure you’ve been searching for
He handed me a list and said, here’s what you need
The rules of the 12 step recover
1. friday nights
2. neon lights
3. find a party crowd
4. jukebox
5. let it rock
6. let your hair down
7. howl at the moon
8. shoot a little pool
9. get out on the dance floor with somebody
10. let the tables turn
11. let the bridges burn
12. let go of the memory
That’s the mend a broken heart, make a new start,
12 step recovery
Well I gotta admit I had my doubts at first
But I figured, what the heck, let’s see if it works
So, I followed each step down to the letter
Almost right away I started feeling better
Instead of missing you, now you’ll find me
