Auld Lang Syne

03.01.04/ 9 tenet 5764 *** 2:23

.

old long since you sat beside me

whisp’ring in my ear

all the things that you’d suppose

a woman’d want to hear

old long since my heart surrendered

to captivity

old long since the warm and tender

made a fool of me

.

old long since you took me dancing

in your private place

laughing at the miles between us

drowning in your face

old long since my soul surrendered

to a brighter light

old long since, I can hardly remember

feeling so all right

.

old long since you stood beside me

whispering, “i do”

romantically the rhythm flow

between g~d, me and you

old long since my heart surrendered

learning much too late

old long since the warm and tender

hid a fickle fate

.

old long since you took me dancing

in your mother’s truck

letting me off in~the~middle~of~nowhere

fending for my luck

old long since my soul surrendered

to the great unknown

old long since, I can hardly remember

feeling so let down

.
