There is a song,
I don’t remember.
It begins, “Since
By God’s mercy
We are engaged.”
Repeat it again,
Maybe I’ll remember.
The second part
Is out the back
And around the front.
Songs from another time
Are discovered.
And the missing piece
Is recovered just in time.
I hold the song
In my hand,
Turn off the light,
And run out the back.
The other songs are
Properly placed
Near the woman
Who is looking
From her bed.
I don’t remember.
It begins, “Since
By God’s mercy
We are engaged.”
Repeat it again,
Maybe I’ll remember.
The second part
Is out the back
And around the front.
Songs from another time
Are discovered.
And the missing piece
Is recovered just in time.
I hold the song
In my hand,
Turn off the light,
And run out the back.
The other songs are
Properly placed
Near the woman
Who is looking
From her bed.
