If You Love a Birdie

Of what use are high ideals For they seldom mean little To the one you so hold dear Of what use sweet nothings If they can't keep her by you Of what use is her love If she chooses to walk away May be a drink will wash away The lingering memories of her A broken mirror image is better Than holding on to shrards Shrards of vanity and hope The train trembles the earth Let bygones be ooh my soul #luis 05/17
