AN ARRANGEMENT IN 7/8
she is arranging the flowers
in a dining room
i'll never see again
tonight i'll leave her in pieces
i carry always on
my trips around the sun. where do they go
down to the cafe we'd frequent
when we weren't feeling poor
the people know us there. they asked about you.
& life is light in the springtime
love is so wonderful
the dead are everywhere
i felt so young that september
the leaves were colorful
i see your face in them.
(despair, in 5/8)
someday we'll go out for coffee
she will be beautiful
and i will look destroyed
she'll show me stills of her children
this isn't happening
there was all this hope. where did it go?
(despair, in 6/8)
she will wait until monday
cuz she believes in me
i believe in her
i will return on a tuesday
she is the one for me
this can't be happening. where will i go?
