Stephen Sondheim wrote many great lyrics but perhaps this one (from Send in the Clowns) nails down relationship problems better than anyone?
’Don’t you love a farce?
My fault, I fear
I thought that you’d want what I want
Sorry, my dear!
But where are the clowns?
Send in the clowns
Don’t bother, they’re here’
’Don’t you love a farce?
My fault, I fear
I thought that you’d want what I want
Sorry, my dear!
But where are the clowns?
Send in the clowns
Don’t bother, they’re here’
