lonesome sometimes
on the lines of 'I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry
Song by Drifting Cowboys and Hank Williams'
---------------------------------------------------
I'm So Lonesome, I Could Cry
Sitting by the window
On a creaky wooden chair
Light fine rain falling since daybreak
I can’t go out and play
I am not a child, I can’t play
Damp grains in the bird feeder
Untouched water in bird bath
Not a bird in sight to watch
It is drizzling since yesterday
Lots of puddles by the tree
I can’t go stamping, I am not a child
Rain wet flowers sway
Fresh like kids after shower
Grass hold onto water drops
Tight like one on first date
I can’t go to collect those shiny
Raindrops lined up on wire, I can’t play
I sit there by the window
I can watch rain all day
No one to disturb me here
No one to ask me out or in
My soul keeps me company, I am good
I’m so lonesome sometimes, I cry
