I just got back from over seas saved some money Bought myself a lovely home in a lovely place Heaps of room to plan a garden landscaped too From home down to the road simply loads of space
Never took long next door to find I lived alone Still young retired army rank just bought the home A good cook house keeper too no way skin and bone Planting flowering trees gardens loved them as grown
Up on my second floor padio stars they shone at night Sitting there peace in freshest air beyound compare A few beers salami watching the world go slowly by Then I heard a yell from below is anybody there
I walked down opened front door suffering pole cats The moonlight shone through all she there wore A sight a retired major was not used to seeing true I can't really remember but I think I may have swore
She said with wine under one arm a kind of welcome And as it goes I'm right out of suger too by the way Thought I might **** two birds with the same stone Give a little get a little as my mother used to say
I said come in sit down your from next door right She crossed her legs then changed her comfort there I was enjoying a cigar at the time loved the wine But almost choked on both gasping for some for air
It was I suppose a hot night but I wear more to bed She asked you ok I always dress this way when hot My God and this lived next door my mind boggled I said well sugar must say I do have such a lot
Out of her bag another two bottles of wine came And not of the cheaper brand to say the least From the refrigerator I got a dish of salami Oh I love this stuff i'll stock up for a feast
They say angels have a sense of humor might be A blackout all lights gone the music player too Or maybe a couple of mates I lost over seas Some of them always playing jokes so true
Came over and sat next to me love this leather No lights and never could handle real good wine I think she had a tollerance re this situation Whispered I live alone one thing I have is time
Goodness I'd been away now for a six year stretch I came here for well earned peace of mind I thought to myself won't get much of that tonight And besides beautiful she was ever so very kind
