Are you hurting, girl? Sad girl Faithless girl Never love another girl You're nobody's baby girl. Not anymore. --- It was the day you walked away, The day you said goodbye. It was then. I stopped smiling when you left me. --- When I am old and grey When I have children who no longer visit me And I have grandchildren who don't remember me When my husband's dead and gone And I am quietly wasting away In some hospice where the smell of antiseptic Masks the scent of death as it settles into my bones It'll still be you. I will love you.
