12. LEFT ALL ON HER OWN

 

SHE SEEMED SO SAD AND LONELY

AS SHE WAS SITTING THERE,

NO ONE SEEMED TO BOTHER,

NO ONE SEEMED TO CARE.

SOMETIMES IT DIDN’T MATTER

THAT SHE WAS ALL ALONE,

SHE’D PLEASE HERSELF JUST WHAT SHE DID

WHEN SHE WAS ON HER OWN.

BUT SOMETIMES ON A WINTERS NIGHT

THERE’S SOME THINGS SHE WOULD MISS,

LOVING ARMS TO HOLD HER,

OR SOMEONE JUST TO KISS.

IT ALWAYS SEEMED LIKE OLD AGE

COULD REALLY BE A PAIN,

IF ONLY SHE COULD SEE HER LOVE

JUST ONE MORE TIME AGAIN.

TAKEN FROM HER LONG AGO

AND LEFT ALL ON HER OWN,

WAITING FOR THE DAY TO COME

WHEN SHE TOO WOULD BE GONE.
