Blackberry Heartbreak Cake
Girl at the diner
looks at the menu
But all she sees is
Blackberry Heartbreak Cake
A I-Miss-You-Sugar Shake
and Come-Back-Baby Pie
Losing you makes me wanna cry
Take my blackberries
turn them back to cherries
Mend my broken heart
Overcome with tears, sits there all alone
Without her lover here, she’s in a distant roam
They always took the corner table
held hands and whispered words
Her smile so light and warm
has now been replaced with hurt
Waitress in the plain black dress
observes her weeping and distress
Does not ask her what she’d like to drink
because she knows that all she thinks
Is of Blackberry Heartbreak Cake
Bleeding Sundae with Dagger Flake
A I-Want-You-Back Latté
and I’m-All-Alone Sorbet
You took my honeyed berries
I worked so hard to make
and used them to bake me
A blackberry heartbreak cake
Oh yeah, she went through
a banana split
And now she’s crying, crying
She can’t handle it
She don’t order no chocolate kisses
just reminds her of who she misses
And painfully she bites away her mistake
of blackberry heartbreak cake
