Free Cee He She and What He Would Not See
HE, SHE AND WHAT HE WOULD NOT SEE
He couldn't look behind him to see what he might see
it was a sorrowful vision he ordered his eyes to remain blind to
he wouldn't cock his neck to witness sorrow's decree
nor would he turn around to witness what sadness would make true
with all the trees between the two
with the sun blinding his vision's aim
he refused to see what was happening 'neath a sky of blue
and he had only one person who could stand to take the blame
his selfishness had caused a scene he never meant to be
his neediness caused his heart to remain cold to her desire
there had been too much history paused between this he and she
and there he stood wishing his eyes would become a liar
he would not tilt his head to see yesterday's demand
he would not stand or sit and watch that passing day
he would not listen to what his heart sounded to command
and he would not sing that song as his lover walked away
