Pine Needles

I thought of you alot today
While sitting near the bridge
I wonder, did your ears ring?
Even just a smidge?

Well all I know is if they did
They must have rang alot
You were on my mind so much
More often than were not

I pretended you were with me
Even spoke to you out loud
But then I changed from heart to heart
When sat down a small crowd

I played and people listened
But that meant not too much
Since you're the only one I saw
My mind's eye on you touched

No matter where I am
No matter what I do
When I start to miss you
I just look at my tattoo

It's a poor man's substitution
For a lady rich and fine
But I have to take what I can get
I do so for you pine
