COMMON SENSE

A woman was asked to explain

Why she always undressed in the rain.

She said 'Clothes can get

Very soggy and wet;

Now they're dry when I wear them again.'

TIME TO SAY GOODBYE

All the while I see you,

Though you don't turn around,

'Goodbye' seems so impossible;

I'm on familiar ground.

I've seen you walk that path before,

I've seen your comforting shape;

But then you were leaving for a time,

Not making your escape.

*

All the while I see you,

Today's like yesterday;

You're sure to turn and smile at me;

And I know the words you'll say......

'I was only teasing, darling!

Of course it's not the end!

You mean so very much to me,

You're my lover and my friend.'

*

All the while I see you

It's as though we're playing parts,

Pretending to be ex-lovers

Who're nursing broken hearts.

But soon you'll turn the corner;

Leaving not the slightest trace.

I'll no longer see you;

You will be an empty space.
