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 recovery"
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 new
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
