Sitting by the river where it all began
Lunching you asked the favor of my hand
Smiling politely I ordered more wine
Signaling I might be, so inclined
Smiling, nodding, listening to your traps
Loving lost, no kids, wife who attacks
We danced our eyes blue
But married are you
Married are you
Widowed am I
I want a Dad for my kids with a heart that’s wide
I want hugs every night until the day I die
You were wishing too, I saw light in your blue eyes
You were whispering booze, “Hold on baby while I try.”
Looking back I see how you held my hand
Remembering your feeling gentle gaze of my land
You held me softly when groundings were marsh
You taught sotto voce to this young poets voice
Raining in a low tide, we chose our good-byes
Hugged pulled back slowly, in two separate hides
We danced our eyes blue
But married are you
Married are you
Widowed am I
We danced our eyes blue
But married are you
Married are you
Widowed was I
We danced our eyes blue
But married are you
Married are you.
