I
actually had a tune in my head for these lyrics, but I can't work out how to
play it on any of the instruments I tinker with. I also can't seem to get back
into the same frame of mind that I had when I first started writing it, so I
can't seem to add to it or improve it. So I thought I'd dump it on here, as it
is, as 'a poem' and see if I can make something more of it later...
The
bluest eyes I've ever seen
Were
nestled in a beauty queen
We
hooked up in a limousine
She
helped to set me free
She
was booked to do a fashion show
So
caught a flight to Tokyo
and
as I watched her turn to go
I
knew we'd never be
On
the plane to sunny Spain
We
found each other yet again
She
pulled me forward out of pain
And
sent me back to us
Somewhere
up Chicago way
She
came and took my breath away
I
feel in deep but couldn't stay
and
left without a fuss
Sometimes
doubts can come on strong
If
it feels right I must be wrong
I
know it won't be very long
Before
I choose to bail
Now
I know I'm past my prime
Everything
that feels sublime
Can
only last a little time
and
then it starts to fail
