Good Luck In Fairfield

Good luck in Fairfield
Good luck in Vermont
Good luck using your words
Try not to get caught

Good luck with people
Good luck with yourself
Try to speak clearly
Try to think of Fairfield Pond

What used to be called Dream Pond
After a lady had a dream of a man
Drowning a mother and her baby there
Try to imagine being the accused and convicted man

Good luck imagining
Good luck holding onto life
(You are my guardian angel
And every effort you make towards goodness
Brings me infinite joy.)

I don’t expect you to understand,
Just don’t give up:
The love without reason.
Your smile through every season.

You need little luck
You're good all on your own.
