For a short while, I thought that she
Would stay here by my side
As she would wait for you to come,
Passing hours with a sigh
The summer we had thrown away
Was spent beside the fire
She’d hum a tune and play guitar,
Of singing, she’d never tire
I did not know her very well,
But she would like to talk
The only thing that captured her
Was when with you she walked
And sang and played out loud each night
She loved these simple things
She longed for you, she cared for you
She thought you’d see her through.
Just to be frank, I could not stand
The song Norwegian Wood
But nowadays, I cannot help
But hum it like she could
I often think of what she’d be
If you were with her then
And think of silly questions like
Then where, with who and when?
But to tell you the truth
I really ******* dislike thinking of you,
And by extension,
I really ******* dislike talking to you,
So let’s just stop.
