SONG
Songbird,
singing as I wandered
yesterday happily,
how can it be
you never said
she was leaving me?
You were wrong bird
to be so carefree.
Songbird,
what if I’ve squandered
my one and only chance
of romance?
Do you have a song
for this circumstance?
Oh songbird,
try a minor key.
Yesterday I was happy for our paths to cross.
This morning I’m mourning my loss,
counting the cost.
This morning I’m walking in sorrow.
You’d better find another fellow to follow.
Cut to tomorrow…
Songbird,
from now onward,
you can sing your happy song
all day long.
She’s long gone,
don’t get me wrong.
But songbird,
I think I’ve met someone.
