Seven Days of Wait
Seven days later the phone doesn't ring I know
in my heart that I said the right thing but seven
days later the phone doesn't ring.
I've sat in this house a full seven days
not a ting not a ring nothing I say.
As I pace the floor lost in wonder of why
something in the corner catches my eye.
A little gray cord by the phone stand OH MY!!
The damn phone was unplugged that's
why it didn't ring well isn't that a hell of a thing.
