  It Hurts Me/Feeling Like a Waltz
  /A Rose Growing Old



    Slipping past the chimney-pots,
    Down among the ashes, away from old times--
    Why must I self-indulge in memories?
    I should be celebrating to a moving melody,

        But it hurts me, it hurts me,
        Honey, honey, it hurts me.
        And I'm feeling like a waltz,
        Growing old, old, old, old, old.

    I was firey but you put me out.
    I was always one for loving and leaving.
    I like to think I was immune to romance.
    I should be laughing at some good old comedy.

        Oh, but it hurts me, it hurts me.
        Honey, honey, it hurts me.
        And I'm feeling like a waltz--

    If you laughed at me, I'd laugh too.
    Waltz, don't you know that I'd be really breaking.
    L'amour--mon choux avec un etranger.
    I shouldn't care, you're not my darling anymore,

        But it hurts me, it hurts me,
        Honey, honey, honey, honey.
        And I'm feeling like a waltz,
        Growing old, old, old, old, old.
