Starr in Absence (Original song)

An original :D

LYRICS:
The sky was empty,
The pub was full,
The sky was brown,
The town was dull.

My eyes were searching,
My mind was thinking,
I cannot see you,
Cos I've been drinking.

I didn't bring the plastic rose,
That I proposed to offer you,
Next time we met,
I couldn't do.

Come back into the world,
Let the fire fly,
Skipping lakes to a polonaise,
And knowing nothing is fine.

I found a friend
And asked for you,
And he just said,
He's been there too.

He told me that,
Your heart's for taking,
But she's a pain,
She'll leave you aching.

I went home, messaged you, and sighed,
And you replied you'd gone to bed,
You had to work,
It's fine I said.

Come back into the world,
Let the past die,
Today seems to be all we can have,
And the future may be unkind.

You were spooning,
In the lounge,
I was in the kitchen,
Trying to scrounge.

I wanted you to,
Soothe the pain,
But instead I,
Took benzocaine.

It might have been so very right,
If just that night, I'd kept my cool,
And spoke to you,
I'm such a fool.

Come back into the world,
Reach out your hand,
I know mistakes will have to be made,
But that's life and it's still mine.

(Such a fool...)

(Start again...)
