Please don’t sing to me anymore
I can not cope and I implore
Don't sing to me
                 anymore

It is your voice
I have to say
I can’t go on
With life this way

It makes me cry
Or even weep
It plays in my head
And my soul can’t sleep

I can not stand this any longer
I’m getting weaker still
Not stronger

Baby please
Don’t get me wrong
You really have a lovely song

And I know
        I know
            I know I’m wrong
To ask you not to sing that song
But baby please have mercy here
I love the start
    the END I fear!



RAAAAAAA!

As - hopefully you can see - the problem is not the singing but that it has to end.

Could the name of the song be,
Dear John??

I like it!

Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito. - Virgil.
"Yield thou not to adversity, but press on the more bravely".
