The life I'm enjoying

The song that came up in my head.

So long, fare thee well
The dancer and the dancing days have taken leave and fell
So turn down this bed of stone
Quench me with the deadly nightshade from the rose that you belong

[Chorus]
The long December rain is falling now
Running down on streets to nowhere
Music is my life - you're my sweetest nightingale
But I can't hear it here no more
And I go...

Hush now, don't shake or break
Words have fallen silent like soldiers to the grave
No matter what they do or say
Lay me on the sleepy meadows by the tracks upon your face"

.......................................................................

The coke on my table, bitter
The voice of the lecturer, silent
The feeling I had, anxious
The wind that blew, chilly

Shivering with tears, I didn't have the chance to say "take care".



Goodbye.


With love,
Burton.
