Analysis of Unrequited love
Johnny Chang 1980 (Chicago)
You don’t like me
I like you.
My heart is inconsolable
It’s unrequited love
My hearts fluttering like a dove
It’s like days of thunder
My heart’s been torn in two
You make me feel blue
I’ll get on with the show
I’ll meet someone new ( it’s all the boy and music that I practice fault)
