WOKE UP TODAY

 

WOKE UP TODAY

What to say

woke up today

old and grey

stiff as hay

London bridge is falling down

falling down

my fair lady

stumbled from my bed

stood up in the dark

wondering

the moon shines bright

in the middle of the night

my fair lady

drag feet

around 

the room

dressed

stumbled 

bumbled

down  to the kitchen

coffee in hand

sat and planned

the days they come

the days they go

peer out the window

waiting

my fair lady

what to do

what to do

my fair lady

the sun rises

in the east

sets in the west

still dark

sip of coffee 

peer out the window

snow on the ground

dawn on the horizon

moon setting in the west

another 

sip of coffee

my fair lady

the days

they come

the days 

they go

the nights 

are long

filled with 

dread 

still

the days

they come

the days

they go

my fair lady.
