A Chapter in the Verse
by Patricia L Francis - Copyright © Patricia L Francis

It was just another friday night
you and me, we had another fight
When we got home
you went into your room
nothing else was said

I went in to make it right
say I love you, and hold you tight
You know the hardest cut of all
you turned your face
to the wall

I was there for just three days
when you looked at me and
you turned away
I packed my things closed the door
and headed down the road

[ I know you're as scared as me
When the kids inside just won't agree
The stones they throw

are hard and cold

Ain't it funny how feelings go
You can't act on what you don't know
and good-bye is the only

way we see... ]

So now here we are
seperate sorrows, seperate cars
Yes, we'll wave as we pass
on the street

somehow feels incomplete

As I drive all alone
wind whistlin' thru' my window
thinkin 'bout how it went that night

it's a shame when the kids
come out to fight

Have we learned our lessons well
Who knows babe,
I can't tell

As we go our seperate ways
Maybe someday the kids will play

[ I know you're as scared as me
when the kids inside just won't agree
The stones they throw

are hard and cold

Ain't it funny how feelings go
You can't act on what you don't know
and good-bye is the only

way we see ]

and good-bye is the only
way we see...
