When I Faint

When I Faint Well, thought that you were all I got, So ain't you or ain't you really not; For me bartender got another shot Because he said I sure drink a lot. First did see you on dance floor; Next thing you were out the door; Year ago I quit keeping score, After not seeing you anymore. One kiss for you and forget about me; Now whole story I'm startin' to see; Better go ahead and cut you free, Never could pass test for sobriety. Went out and bought a lot of paint To cover up each and every ain't; Then someone said I was a saint On floor will find my face when I faint James Jonquil Joyful Horn www.poetrysoup.com www.story-telling-around-the-world.com
