Four Days In November

Edna's Goldfish

What ever happened to the color in people's faces

Or the black and white of their expressions

When everything was beautiful and nothing hurt at all

Left alone with my thoughts, why am I always wrong

I can give up trying

And be the last to find out that I've been lying

In one day it was all gone

You can take just what you want

But simple goals equal

Too many broken hearts

I can see what I see

You can take what you take

I'm sick of being sick

and I'm tired of being tired

Blow a kiss to the wind when you think of me

Send me a letter

I'll be waiting on the steps

Before you knew better

In one day it was all gone

You can take just what you want

But simple goals leave me

Too many broken hearts

Blow a kiss to the wind...when you think of me

Turn out the light... say goodnight

What about those faces that I saw

How could I recognize them all?

I had a vision that things would be better today

What about that book I never finished writing

Or that fight that I never finished fighting

I guess it doesn't mean anything at all
