12 Step Recovery

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

Well, 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 twelve-step recovery"

Friday nights, neon lights, find a party crowd

Jukebox, let it rock, let your hair down

Howl at the moon, shoot a little pool

Get out on the dance floor with somebody new

Let the tables turn, let the bridges burn

Letting go of the memory

Well, that's the mend-a-broken-heart

Make-a-new-start twelve-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 twelve-step recovery

Friday nights, neon lights, find a party crowd

Jukebox, let it rock, let your hair down

Howl at the moon, shoot a little pool

Get out on the dance floor with somebody new

Let the tables turn, let the bridges burn

Letting go of the memory

Well, that's the mend-a-broken-heart

Make-a-new-start twelve-step recovery

Friday nights, neon lights, find a party crowd

Jukebox, let it rock, let your hair down

Howl at the moon, shoot a little pool

Get out on the dance floor with somebody new

You've gotta let the tables turn, let the bridges burn

Letting go of the memory

Well, that's the mend-a-broken-heart

Make a new start twelve-step recovery

Well, that's the mend-a-broken-heart
