OOOPS...there I go again Thinking of you Just when I think I have you under control Locked out of sight The pain a lessening blow OOOPS...there I go again Thinking of you Hoping for a reprieve Wishing for a sign That you still care Even when I know it won't be OOOPS...there I go again Thinking of you And the pain of it Just takes my breath away Tell me what I did To deserve this OOOPS...there I go again Thinking of you Will there ever come a day When you arent here Filling my head Killing my heart OOOPS...there I go again Thinking Thinking of you |

i do so know the feeling. i kick myself when i think of that special someone that i REALLY don'twant to think about. well penned. very structured. i don't know if you meant it like this, but i read the chorus to the rhythm of "oops i did it again". it just fits! I am reminded of the immortal words of Socrates who said, "I drank what?" |

Paula, These are feelings I am so accustomed to. Take heart, I am here and if you want to talk, just email me. Loved the feeling of the poem. Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love (Daniel J D) |

Oops..There I go again.. I love that.. Its really something I can relate too.. Very well done. With a little piece of tomorrow, You'll have to kiss yesterday goodbye. Because today won't last forever, And the past will only make you cry. |

Paula~ I like the ooop's ! Memories are for ooop'sing lightly over. A neat little write. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

It can be very hard to remove that certain someone from everyday thought. The real challenge, I suppose is how we deal with the feeling, the memory, that seems to haunt us. Just remember... into every life, a little 'oops' must fall Well said, Paula. A poem for reflection. Trev. |
