12 Step Recovery

(album: Calm Before The Storm - 1996)

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
Practicing the 12 step recovery
