My ramblings....: I Figured Out Love At Less Than Eight

Tuesday, February 07, 2006

Hello, it's worth a shot
Sent her flat out running

Quick to the line

We agreed to finish
Hello, I'm here again with a well-done smile

Goodbye,

Caught a deadpan silence

And turned it into a never again

Quite a magic trick

But I've never known it to do anything but lose

And one day, 7 years down the road

We'll meet again at a run down truck stop

Where bearded men spend their time like quarters

And we'll say

Hello, where have you been all my life

But we'll know that answer, sort of

Then again, 9 months later

We'll realize the mistake

Though we can't quite put our finger on it

Once a man with a long face

Told me he fell in love close to a hundred times

Seemed like a Goodbye thing

But now I kind of understand

I can do that again

But it wont be whole heartedly

Because a couple pieces are already missing

Hello, it's worth a shot
