Congratulations Lyrics

Congratulations, for breaking my heart
Congratulations, now aren't you smart
You've won the only love I know
So let me shake your hand
Congratulations from a mighty lonely man

I hope you love her as much as I
Please don't mistreat her, don't make her cry
The day you came into her life, that's when our love died
Congratulations and I hope you're satisfied

I want you to know that I still love her so much
Just mention her name and my heart still gets a thrill
I want you to know that I still long for her touch
And what's more buddy I guess I always will

Congratulations, for breaking my heart
We had a true love, but much to short
Just how you took her love from me I'll never understand

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
