~~~~~~~

I seen ya thru

From the kindergarten cloakroom

All the way to the marketplace

:::

We lived !

Amid the gangs and the police men

;;;;


;;;;


The lonely tenement days

The schools and prisons  and the rest

""

We lay naked on the floor

For a little while

//

hey babe

I'm still on the street

::

Looking out for the strays

///


I'm still in love with you

Even at our age

::

;;;


The world is on fire

Soon the war will come

///


Time for the graveyard

It seems

Such a failure

On our part

••

Once we died of a broken heart

Now even our minds are gone

••

I know you well

< .... Beauty ... >

Given for free

••

However the story goes

For us it will be a song

//

The whole thing

Went wrong

But you and I

Were true

//

We were so very true
