Blues Sonnet #1: Missing Me Now
Today the postman brought a letter, Baby, it came from you
From a town I never heard of, Baby, it came from you
Must be the next day after never, that's when you said I'd hear from you.
Our empty bedroom is the dustbin for my shattered heart
So many reminders of you in the dustbin with my shattered heart
All the pieces that you threw out, when you made your brand new start
You write you found a new place for us, you're waiting for me there
You write you found a new job for me, you're waiting for me there
But I'm still looking for a mention of why you left me here
You hated my job, you hated my friends, you hated this city, Baby, you hated me
You wouldn't look back, you made your choice: no regrets, and no more history
I was waiting for this letter that I thought would never come
I can't believe this letter that I thought would never come
You're waiting in your new town, but ... Baby, you're still you, and I'm still me.
