But...

But...

My questions are unanswered
Crib games left to play
Holidays to venture on
Amusing days away
Nights to sway in drunken
Coffee yet to sip
Ciggy smoke to curl and twist
This is just a blip...
Clothes to swop and jumble
Rooms to decorate
Books to read - and lyrics mumble
Do the jobs we hate
Flights to Lanzarote
The A1, then the boat
Got to go up north again
Can I borrow your coat?
What about the business...
What about the car...
What about the sun, the moon,
Our bright and twilight star?
What about my feelings?
What about my heart?

I just can't get my head around it
Don't know where to start...

I know that you were ready
I know you knew deep down
I wouldn't bring you back again for
All the tea in town

But...

Please know I truly loved you
Pearls of wisdom, shards of ice
Regrets too many, hugs too few
The friendship sacrifice

I'll dream and you're there smiling
I'll sit and meditate
I'll not forget, for I live yet, but I will miss you...
Mate.
