I know you care,
I can see it in the way you stare.
You promised you’d always be there
This pain is too much too bear.
.
Tinted windows,
Spray painted walls,
Howling widows,
Broken dirty dolls.
.
Fresh clean air,
Polished new chairs,
Golden chandeliers,
No room for fears.
.
Forbidden kisses under the moonlight,
My golden secret knight,
Will make everything alright.
.
You work under the sunlight,
I work somewhere bright.
.
Mud on your face,
Soul full of grace,
Love me in your embrace,
Darling, you are no disgrace.
.
No, no, no, don’t run away,
Don’t listen to what they say,
Darling, why can’t you stay?
.
Father, no let me go,
He’s my Monroe,
My Joe,
He caused me to grow.
.
Four years come and pass,
I thought we would last.
Who cares about high, middle or lower class?
I thought I was winning when I was really coming in last.
Oh how time goes by fast.
