The Things I Don'T Do

I don’t think your happy 
I don’t mind you so much 
Do you lose your laughter often
And even my conscience softens 

And I don’t need you so much 
Days dreams across Okalahoma
Sweepstakes, hopes, to many wishes  
Don’t you ever, mind your business 

No Cinderella stories 
Door to door and right before me 
And this won’t last much longer
A west coast love, romances of a loner 

And I don’t need you so much 
I don’t think you’re happy 
And I don’t mind you so much 
Day dreams in Okalahoma 

Tuesday lies
Wednesday, you never left me 
A missing tide
The message your anger left me 

And where were you 
Reasons you left unto 
No one ever leaves you darling
Someone left her nights in Harlem 

And I can’t choose 
Life or muse
Me or you 
The things that I don’t do

"May, June, someday soon"
