Once a precisely lawn was cut Lonely uncle, left in a rut Grass grows high, as he hits new lows But you’re not here, and so it goes Images of that yellow chair Where you would be, but now aren’t there Sitting where you sat, I repose But you’re not here, and so it goes Orphaned belatedly in life One does not expect pain and strife Lacking love a parent bestows But you’re not here, and so it goes With you all, I shall juxtapose No doors open, one last box to close Upon this earth shall lay a rose But you’re not here, and so it goes

So It Goes
Once a precisely lawn was cut Lonely uncle, left in a rut Grass grows high, as he hits new lows But you’re not here, and so it goes Images of that yellow chair Where you would be, but now aren’t there Sitting where you sat, I repose But you’re not here, and so it goes Orphaned belatedly in life One does not expect pain and strife Lacking love a parent bestows But you’re not here, and so it goes With you all, I shall juxtapose No doors open, one last box to close Upon this earth shall lay a rose But you’re not here, and so it goes
