Year 25: In Review
Today I head to Chile for a week with my friend Matt (see the blog “Matt’s Waste of Your Time”). For many years now, many of my friends have urged me to see the world, and finally, I have been blessed with both the opportunity and smarts to actually do it. Over the next month, I will not only be seeing Chile, but thanks to my wonderful sister Tara, will also be going to Spain and France-- also with Matt. I am really, really, looking forward to these trips, and I expect you all to be super-envious of me— except for maybe you, Matt. ;-)
Therefore, this will be my last post for at least a week and as my birthday falls within that time, I thought this would be a good opportunity to assess my year and maybe set some goals for next year. This has truly been a life-transforming year for me, and well, I feel truly fortunate; frankly, to borrow a quote from Lou Gehrig, I feel like I am the luckiest man in the world. By almost every objective measure I can think of, year 25 has been the best year of my life.
As some of you know, I wrote a letter back in November or so, which detailed some of the internal problems I had. In retrospect, I think the letter was a little unfair to some of my friends, because it was unexpectedly springing a whole lot of emotion on them at once, which can really be quite draining. However, in many ways, it was probably the best thing I have ever done. I’ve not had a panic attack in over two years now, and only by my own personally harsh standards would I still consider myself even a little homophobic. And seriously, I feel so ridiculously loose. I just feel much more free, like I have gotten this amazing load off of my chest, and yeah, it’s hard to describe, I haven’t had insomnia, even when rather negative things happen to me I don’t get down as much, it’s like I’ve been blessed with a much more positive way of looking at the world (and at myself). Personally, I’ve always struggled with my maturity (am I a boy or a man), and if I’m not a man yet, in my opinion, I would say I’m pretty darn close.
I truly believe in God. I don’t know how to best defend this, so I’ll just say that things have happened to me this year, coincidences some may call them, but so many of them, and at perfect moments, that well, I feel I owe very little to how great this year went to myself, but rather to a divine power... it’s just that things have really gone my way. Frankly, I’m too stupid to make the best choices for myself (this much I know), so things like these trips, with just how busy and wonderful my schedule has been.... it’s just been very fortuitous. Even in this past month, two, objectively, rather unfortunate things happened to me, but I know in my heart that both were for the best, and I guess I’ve known this for a while now— really, I’m fortunate both happened to me. Even in misfortune, I’ve been fortunate... for what I already have, really, I am so incredibly blessed.
Just last night, I got a birthday letter from my friend Sarah. She is pregnant and I expect that little Dahlia will be coming along soon... most likely on my birthday. ;-) One day, Dahlia will likely be a great musician... the female Mozart--- except better than him! I speak so fondly about lots of people on my blog, but the fact is that there are so many people out there who are better than me— better in that they just have this wonderful light that shines upon me, and well, it’s their grace that I find so compelling— perhaps they are no “better”, but in their own ways, they are the best people for me... truly great people. These are people I am blessed to have in my life... many of them I have already posted about their greatness— but at the end of the day, I think that’s what life is about: family, friends, and what one contributes to make one’s life and others’ lives more filled with love. On that matter, I am very proud of this blog, it has already helped at least one person very important to me, and well, it’s also been really fun to express my creativity— even the somewhat raunchy stuff. ;-)
Today, and later this month, I will achieve one of my life goals of seeing parts of the world (thanks Matt and Lil’ Uno). Throughout the year, I’ve also been blessed to see many different parts of the country (as I said, I am really, very lucky). As for goals this upcoming year:
1) I would really like to produce a book of animal poetry. I find this to be fun and a cool way to spend some of my free time. By this time next year, I hope to have written at least 50 animal poems— at least 5 of which are of quality. ;-) If you have the time, and enjoy this sort of stuff, please post comments! :-)
2) As a longer term (maybe 3 year) goal, I would really like to write a Broadway musical. I may be a dreamer (in more ways than one), but I really believe I have the talent to write a great musical, and God-willing, I hope to put it together. Of course, the problem will be setting it to music, but I feel like this is something that if I write it, the music will come (thanks Kevin Costner). My musical will be about love, breaking down the fakeness/fears of society, and will, of course, also be damn funny. Seriously, if I could write a good musical that also helped people, well, I would be very happy.
3) I want to take on more responsibility— both in my career and in my personal life. I have thought about maybe buying a house and, well, this takes that darn word “responsibility”... ugh! :-P
4) I love my sisters... I have to let them know it every day. And I love some of my friends too... if I let them know it, they’d probably feel awkward. ;-) And I love my parents too, even if their politics are whack!
5) I need to smile at least one thousand times every day- for those who know me, you know that’s a pretty good estimate. :-) I sometimes think about falling in love again, but really, I’m just a goof ball. If love happens, God-willing, may the insanity be good to me. :-P
Thanks for reading, and if you have ever been kind or good to me, thanks a lot, I hope to return the favor. These are my goals... maybe around New Years or next birthday I’ll reassess how I’ve done. Most importantly, I'll just have to remember who and what is important, and stick to them/that--- the rest will come. :-P

Hippopotamus: Animal Poem #16
So you want to be
A hip hippopotamus
Then you better know how to dance
This is a must!
For the hippos dance off the river floor
We’ve never learned how to swim
What a bore!
So just move your hips
And do the hippo dip
Meaning dip your butt to the floor!
And then get it back up
And shake it again
And then dip it down low some more!
For if you want to be hip
In hip hippo town
Then you have to learn how to dance
This is a must!
For the only rhyme
In hip hippo time
Is the splash of the booty’s sound
So bring it down!
Get hip
Get hip hippo down!
Get hip
Swing those hips around!
Get hip
Bring your buns low down!
For there’s no one as hip
Or likes to take a dip
As much as we
In hip hippo town!
Get hip
Make the music proud!
Get hip
Shake that butt around!
Get hip
Shake it while you go down!
For there’s no one as hip
Or likes to take a dip
As much as we
In hip hippo town!
So if you want to dance
Give yourself half a chance
And dance like a hippo knows
For the hip hippo goes
Like a song no one knows
We are booties without control
So as you dance
Upon the great dance floor
Don’t be a stick in mud
No... let it go!
For the dance that’s in
Is the dance within!
Just shake your booty without control!
And get hip
Get hip hippo down
Get hip
Shake it all around!
Get hip
Make we hippos proud!
For no one’s as hip
Or likes to take a dip
As much as we
In hip hippo town!
A hip hippopotamus

Orangutan: Animal Poem #15
Who da’ man?
The orangutan!
Who da’ man?
The orangutan!
Who da’ man?
The orangutan!
So you better be a fan
Of the orangutan!
In all the animal kingdom
We are the best and brightest
We use our brainy minds
To produce even these words you find
For do not overlook
That the author of this book
Is a brilliant orangutan
See, this rhyme has the best hook!
For the smartest and the brightest
Are those who have red heads
It’s only fools who say the brightest
Are those silly blondes or those brunettes
For if you ever see a red head
Especially an orangutan
You better call him “Da’ Man”
Or if a woman then “Da’ Woman!”
Who da’ woman?
The orangutan!
Who da’ woman?
The orangutan!
Who da’ woman?
The orangutan!
So you better be a fan
Of the orangutan!
So if you ever want to hang
With an orangutan
You have to bring all of your respect
For we are the tree-top swingers
The animal kingdom’s ringers
And all we expect
From our human subjects
Is that you call us by our proper names:
That be the red-hair, fair, and beyond compare
Beautiful orangutan:
Also known in this or any land
As “Da’ Woman” or “Da’ Man”.
The orangutan!
Who da’ man?
The orangutan!
Who da’ man?
The orangutan!
So you better be a fan
Of the orangutan!
In all the animal kingdom
We are the best and brightest
We use our brainy minds

Happy Birthday Clarice!!!
Today is Clarice's Birthday...
For those who don't know her, her blog is 2nLNwChrist on the right of my page over there. Anyway, I am very fortunate to have been blessed to meet Clarice. She is a person who brings amazing joy, positive energy, happiness, and a slice of "special" every day. The poem below is a re-post, but I know that Clarice reads my blog now, and maybe she didn't see this before... happy birthday Clarice!!!
Anyway, this is my poem for Clarice: a truly good person, for whom, if there's a heaven, and angels like myself could bet on humans like at a race track, I would give her really, really good odds! :-P
For the Princess
Some believe that there’s a heaven up above
I believe it’s any place you find her love
Because with a personality lined with fleece
And with words that comfort like a glove
She’s a walking model of youth and art
To be painted as generosity flowing from a heart
But what such canvass could never describe
Is the amount of good she has bundled inside
The way she gives not just of money
But her smiles, laughs, and sweeping curves
On her cheeks, on the intonations of her voice waves
That can make any dark-room suddenly sunny
Whereas many are busy gathering their piece
Tethered to magazines, to stocks, to familial hopes
She dreams of God, of love, of understanding, of family, of friends,
In short, she lives the salvation of love,
And it’s this pureness of heart that makes me think
That few I know have found a greater peace
Than the one we call our Princess: Clarice.

the..... "I want".... song
I want so much to touch you
I want so much to make you smile
I want so much to feel you, feel you
I want so much to feel your spine
I want so much to explore you
Search every crevice, tour every pore
I want so much to explore you, tour you
Explore the valley til I hear your roar
I want so much to taste you
To lick your tongue and taste your mouth
I want so much to taste you, taste you
With a tongue that once was chaste
I want so much to smell you
To smell the scent of inner sense
I want so much to smell you, smell you
To smell the scent that’s pleasure sent
uhh... uhh...uhh...uhh
I want so much to hear you
To stir you up until you purr
I want so much to hear you, hear you
Until our minds are just a blur
You’ve touched my all five senses
And it drives me senseless... senseless!
You’ve touched my all five senses
And it’s just relentless... relentless!
You gone past all defenses
And now I’m just defenseless... defenseless!
It’s just a horny feeling
And well your just relentless... relentless!
I want so much to touch you
I want so much to make you smile
I want so much to feel you, feel you
I want so much to make you mine
I want so much to taste you
From the source that brings your waste
I want so much to taste you... taste you
With a tongue that once was chaste
I want so much to smell you
To smell perfume and spell our doom
I want so much to smell you, smell you
With a danger that love will do
uhh...uhh...uhh...uhh.
I want so much to hear you
I want so much to hear your purr
I want so much to hear you, hear you
As I come warm down your fur
I want so much to feel you
To seal the deal and steal your heart
I want so much to feel you... feel you...
I want to peel your v apart...
It’s the want that haunts me
That’s haunts my nerves
And feels your curves...
It’s the want that haunts me
That rips me inside
And begs for more...
It’s the want that haunts me
That haunts my mind
And my insides
It’s the want that haunts me
Despite all I have
It’s you I want...
I want so much to touch you
I want so much to make you smile
I want so much to feel you, feel you
I want so much to feel your spine
uhh... uhh...uhh...uhh
I want so much to explore you
Search every crevice, tour every pore
I want so much to explore you, tour you
Until your crying, begging more
I want so much to touch you
To touch your tongue and taste your mouth
I want so much to touch you, touch you
To touch you in and all throughout
I want so much to smell you
To smell the the well of inner sense
I want so much to smell you, smell you
Within the well that’s heaven sent
I want so much to hear you
To hear your stories of what you did
I want so much to hear you, hear you
Because your voice incites my id
You've touched my all five senses
And now I’m just defenseless... defenseless
With a want that haunts me
My want for you is relentless... relentless
And how can I best express it
When every night is endless... endless...
Your beauty is relentless
And your touch is endless....endless...

Apologies to my female friends... though I think this could be a hit with the right performer and music... this "I want" song no doubt explores the Hyde in me... but I'm a good guy... I swear!!! ugh...

Platypus: Animal Poem #14
If I was a platypus
I would have a bill
With the body of a beaver
And webbed feet to help me swim
If I was a platypus
I’d be a monotreme
Meaning our mammalian babies
Come from eggs laid by the stream
If I was a platypus
I’d waddle on the land
And in the water I would paddle
Eating shrimp out from the sand
If I was a platypus
I’d be covered in dark fur
But at the corner of my ankle
Would be a deadly, poison spur
If I was a platypus
Most humans would think me odd
But it would not really matter
Because we dance to the "platypus trot"
So though I’m not a platypus
Just a poor human boy I be
If I could I’d be a platypus
And, no, that’s not funny!
I would have a bill

Unicorn: Animal Poem #13
Unicorn, Unicorn
Thee with thy one horn
The villagers want to know
Why you come to me every morn
They see you as a mystery
A creature that can’t be caught
It’s a wonder why you come to me
When your beauty is all they’ve sought
These men approach me every day
Their faces filled with scorn
“Why did she approach you again?”
I stay silent, they forlorn.
For what they believe, unicorn
Is that you only approach the pure
And what the villagers offer here
Is, well, jealousy, nothing more.
But that’s ok, unicorn
Your secret is safe with me
For I was a child who was born
To desire your company
So as these men shout and moan
And ponder of your legend
I just wait for you every morn
Holding our bag of buttered popcorn.
---------------
Ok, so technically, a unicorn is not an "animal" (at least in most people's opinions), it's more a mythical creature. However, this was a special request from Elizabeth, and I hope you enjoyed it. -P
Thee with thy one horn
The villagers want to know
Why you come to me every morn

These men approach me every day
Their faces filled with scorn

Oh Tiffany!
Ok, so I needed a laugh... I've been a little stressed and stupid lately...so I pulled my fortune today... it said "remember men need laughter sometimes more than food" (it was a quote by Anna Fellows Johnson)... my sister followed that statement up with "I guess this is true but I LOVE food"...
Anyway, whether you're a man or a woman (hopefully not a kid), I hope you get a few laughs over this song... it's pleasantly entitled "Oh Tiffany!"
-------------------------------------------
Oh Tiffany!
She says “hello”
But there’s a fire down below
And I have no wish to extinguish
I say “oh hi”
Thinking “please baby be mine”
It’s not just my nervous system that nervous
But she’s so calm
While there’s water on my palms
And a bunny energizing inside me
Oh, it’s just her
But I cannot say a word
For it’s a pain to try to restrain a feeling
So I try to hide
But her beauty is inside
And there’s an energy surging for its freedom
But it’s too late
To stop the crater she creates
For when she tells me her name…
Oh…
That’s when I came…
Oh Tiffany!
Oh Tiffany!
When I had my chance
That’s when I came in my pants!
Oh Tiffany!
Oh Tiffany!
Is it too late for romance?
Is it too late for romance?
Oh is it too late for romance?
I was the new kid at the school (music)
They told me there was one golden rule (music)
It was to stay away from Tifff-aaaa-neeeeee (music)
“She may make your pee-pee pee” (music)
“She may make your pee-pee pee” (music)
“She may make your pee-pee pee”(music)
But I did not ever listen (music)
For when I saw her my heart did glisten (music)
To me she was a beauty
And an aaaaaaann-----gelllllllllll…. (music)
I did not care of all the danger (music)
I did not care of all the danger (music)
I did not care of all the danger (music)
But my little man was a stranger!!! Ohhhhhh!!!!!!
Oh Tiffany!
Oh Tiffany!
When I had my chance
That’s when I came in my pants!
Oh Tiffany!
Oh Tiffany!
Is it too late for romance?
Is it too late for romance?
Is it too late for romance?
Well, I did hire me a coach (music)
To help me with that first approach (music)
He told me not to look into those pretty eyes (music)
And, well, that’s all I should have heard (music)
Just say “hi” and then say “bye” (music)
Don’t dare look into those eyes. (music)
But again I did not listen (music)
For when I saw her again my heart did glisten (music)
But as I neared her that’s when I knew it was a big… big…oops (music)
For she has youtube on the boobs (music)
Oh she has youtube on the boobs (music)
Oh she has youtube on the boobs (music)
I was hoping she wouldn’t notice (music)
So I could just hop away like a locust (music)
I knew there was a reason my mom said to wear my underwear (music)
Oooooooh…. khakis can be muddied there (music)
Oooooooh…. khakis can be muddied there (music)
Remember to always wear your underwear (music)
So that a Tiffany does not stare. (music)
Oh Tiffany!
Oh Tiffany!
When I had my chance
That’s when I came in my pants
Oh Tiffany!
Oh Tiffany!
Is it too late for romance?
Is it too late for romance?
Oh is it too late for romance?
She is the prettiest girl in school (music)
She has these curves that beg review (music)
And I was just so very, very new (music)
And I loved her body, it’s true (music)
Don’t you like hotties like she, too? (music)
And do you ever go potty like me too? (music)
I could not resist the urge (music)
I could not avoid that surge (music)
The most embarrassing day
A boy could ever haaaaaaaaaaaave (music)
I wanted to give her my whole life (music)
I wanted to make Tiffany my wife (music)
I wanted to have Tiffany make my babies (music)
What else could a sixth grader want of his lady??? (music)
But she told me it was “Ewwwwww”(music)
And all the kids looked down upon me too (music)
They said that I had peeeeeed in my paaaaaaants (music)
Oh if they ever ever knew (music)
What for Tiffany I’d do? (music)
Oh if she ever ever knew (music)
What for my Tiffany it do… (music)
But alas the story’s is true...
For my balls are cold and blue....
Oh Tiffany
Oh Tiffany!
When I had my chance
That’s when I came in my pants
Oh Tiffany!
Oh Tiffany!
Is it too late for romance?
Could you give me one more chance?
I will clean those dirty pants…
“I love you”, that’s my stance
Oh, so you won’t join me at the dance…
What if I join a big hair band?
“In your dreams” is that a plan?
Won’t you see that I’m your man?
Oh is that your man right there
He must wear his underwear.
Or at you he mustn’t stare
What a joke that Peyton Ware
I will throw him down the stairs.
Anyway, whether you're a man or a woman (hopefully not a kid), I hope you get a few laughs over this song... it's pleasantly entitled "Oh Tiffany!"

Love in Our Romance
In honor of Capital Pride week and LGBT month. May we choose love over fear so that one day no one is ever afraid or ashamed to be loved and to love....
---------------------------------------------
Love in Our Romance
Why is my own life story
To you a source of so much fury
Because it’s plain for me to see
That it’s love or bigotry
There really are no two other ways to think about it.
(music)
And why is my own true preference
To you a life long sentence
When the bitter irony
Of this not so comic tragedy
Is how you think it’s I and not you who should be repentant.
(music)
I am so blessed to have a lover
So why do you insist I choose another
Because although it's he and not she
It’s God’s choice, can’t you see…
If I could, because of you, I would be like you.
(music)
You say that a man and a woman
Is to God the most perfect union
But how can that be,
If within my body
Is a desire that for years I held with tears.
(music)
I know that you say you love all gays
Because, well, that’s what Christ would obviously say
But when you say you love all gays
Why do you treat them in this way
To love is to treat another like a brother.
(music)
And in the news I hear of your values
That define the sort of grooms that one can choose
But why do you not care
About the love that we all share
Equal rights is equal rights...am I not right?
(music)
For you say that a society must have values
That without them everything we will lose
You bring up pedophiles and polygamy files
But then again, how can you say
You love all gays?
(music)
For love is found in every season
And I’m asking you politely for a reason
What sort of values do you use
When fear rhetoric is all you choose
How many lives, because they're different, must we lose?
(harsher music)
Will you love me if I’m gay
And allow me to marry who I may
Or will you insist
That I enlist within your myth?
(music)
For love to me is the only answer
Whether between he and she or she and she
And if you won’t allow me to marry
Always a burden we will carry
What’s the inference when love is treated different?
(music)
So I plead to you with all my heart
To please see the pain within a broken heart
Because I’m just an honest youth
Who was blessed to see the truth
And what I beg is for our love to overcome
(music)
May our love overcome
The fears that overcome
And someday
May we all be free
To love someone
(music)
May our love overcome
All the fears that overcome
And someday
May we be all free
To love our “one”.
(music)
Because there’s beauty in our dance
And love in our romance
And all we really need
Is your acceptance.
(music)
Oh there’s beauty in our dance
And love in our romance
And all we really need
Is your acceptance
(music)
Oh, there’s beauty in our dance
And love in our romance
And all we really need...
All we really need....
All we really need....we really need.... we really neeeeeeeeeeeeed...
Is your acceptance.

Hummingbird "animal" poem
The coming, coming, coming, hummingbird
Is humming, humming, humming when she comes
And my heart is always thumping
When the hummingbird is humming
For we're the thumping, humping, coming, kind of birds.
Is humming, humming, humming when she comes
And my heart is always thumping
When the hummingbird is humming
For we're the thumping, humping, coming, kind of birds.

AHHHHHHHHH!
"Meow" said the cat to the cow
"Moo" said the cow to the goose
And the goose said "hi" while the mice lullabied
But when the ghost said "Boo"
They all cried "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
"Moo" said the cow to the goose
And the goose said "hi" while the mice lullabied
But when the ghost said "Boo"
They all cried "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Hummingbird: Animal Poem #12
The hummingbird is coming
With the fastest pair of wings!
The humming bird is humming
With the air she sings!
And everyone knows the bird who's coming
When the spring is in full swing,
For it’s the lovely hummingbird
With the lovely joy she brings.
There is no wing power
Like the bird within the flowers
She flies every which way
But my heart is where she stays
For the graceful hummingbird
Does not ever say a word
But that doesn’t mean she doesn’t sing
She just sings with her two wings!
You might hear my heart beat
When I meet a hummingbird
It’s the song of a beauty’s beat
It’s the sound the wings did stir
And if my heart is humming softly
When I meet a hummingbird
You may know in every minute
A thousand humming beats are heard.
For when the spring is in full blossom
And the flowers are in bloom
And the air is all so peaceful
While the hummingbirds go zoom
There is a peaceful silence
And then a peaceful humming sound
That’s why it’s always very special
Having a hummingbird around.
So as every day is a blessing
And every creature a gift
There is a bird who always swiftly
Can give my heart a lift
For when my humming bird is coming
So too my heart is thumping
Because for all the joy she’s humming
A joyful heart must sing:
Come fly fly to me my hummingbird
You play the most beautiful song this boy has ever heard
And though your body may be small,
Well, it’s petite,
You may be the most pleasant looking bird
This boy may ever meet.
Come fly fly to me my hummingbird
I know your love has left you at a loss for words
But that’s okay the way your wings so gently sing
To me you’re as pretty as a flower
But it’s love you bring.
Come fly fly to me my hummingbird
The air is not the only thing your wings so often stir
For your presence is as sweet as the nectar you eat
And whenever I’m traveling through the garden
It’s always you I seek.
Come fly fly to me my hummingbird
You are a bird quite unlike any other bird
And it’s a wonder of nature how a heart can so gaily hover
For although I’m just a boy
I’m a hummingbird lover.
With the fastest pair of wings!
The humming bird is humming
With the air she sings!
And everyone knows the bird who's coming
When the spring is in full swing,
For it’s the lovely hummingbird
With the lovely joy she brings.
There is no wing power
Like the bird within the flowers
She flies every which way
But my heart is where she stays
For the graceful hummingbird
Does not ever say a word
But that doesn’t mean she doesn’t sing
She just sings with her two wings!
You might hear my heart beat
When I meet a hummingbird
It’s the song of a beauty’s beat
It’s the sound the wings did stir
And if my heart is humming softly
When I meet a hummingbird
You may know in every minute
A thousand humming beats are heard.
For when the spring is in full blossom
And the flowers are in bloom
And the air is all so peaceful
While the hummingbirds go zoom
There is a peaceful silence
And then a peaceful humming sound
That’s why it’s always very special
Having a hummingbird around.
So as every day is a blessing
And every creature a gift
There is a bird who always swiftly
Can give my heart a lift
For when my humming bird is coming
So too my heart is thumping
Because for all the joy she’s humming
A joyful heart must sing:
Come fly fly to me my hummingbird
You play the most beautiful song this boy has ever heard
And though your body may be small,
Well, it’s petite,
You may be the most pleasant looking bird
This boy may ever meet.
Come fly fly to me my hummingbird
I know your love has left you at a loss for words
But that’s okay the way your wings so gently sing
To me you’re as pretty as a flower
But it’s love you bring.
Come fly fly to me my hummingbird
The air is not the only thing your wings so often stir
For your presence is as sweet as the nectar you eat
And whenever I’m traveling through the garden
It’s always you I seek.
Come fly fly to me my hummingbird
You are a bird quite unlike any other bird
And it’s a wonder of nature how a heart can so gaily hover
For although I’m just a boy
I’m a hummingbird lover.

goodbye, goodbye
You went out with that other one
When I showed interest in you
You went out with that other one
When I showed interest in you
Well, I hope you are happy now
With that one that you did choose
My heart is not open now
No longer yours to use
You flicked your hair like a child
When I showed interest in you
Your eyes went all wild
When I showed interest in you
Well, I know you like that smile
And the interest feigned refused
You can stay with that one a while
My heart's no longer yours to abuse
Oh I hope you are happy now
With the one that you did choose
I hope you are happy now
For the one that you did lose
For I've got nothing to distract me
My love is found within my smile
And you're the best sort of news
To now find what true love glues
Say goodbye, say goodbye,
You sweet, gentle, lie
Say goodbye, say goodbye,
To the one you almost tied
Say goodbye, say goodbye,
To the one who with a sigh
Won't be there when you get the news
That his love is just a ruse.
When I showed interest in you
