Say something," demanded Fancie. "Why don't you say something?"What can I say?"Say that I'm young-that I'll get over it. Go ahead and say it. Go ahead and lie."I know that's what people say-you'll get over it. I'd say it too. But I know it's not true. Oh, you'll be happy again, never fear. But you won't forget. Every time you fall in love it will be because something in the man reminds you of him.
