| For days that were long, long gone.
|
| I sure would like to feel whole.
|
| The bedroom’s so tiny
|
| Or at least the poor tiling
|
| Suggest we should all go home
|
| I sure would like to feel whole
|
| Or at least a little more whole.
|
| Oh, I could write you a symphony.
|
| Oh, and you were working at Sotheby’s
|
| And doing quite well on your own.
|
| You dropped a coin in the turnstile

| She can’t know what I’ve done
|
| I’m dumb, she was so young
|

|
| Or at least a little more whole.
|
| Oh, I could write you a symphony.
|
| Oh, but you were working at Sotheby’s
|
| And doing quite well on your own. |
