The Topic

Have I hurt your feelings? Or did I make you strong If you don’t like my poems Can write you a love song And while we were talking My heart was beating fast To me it seems like forever Those few minutes that it last Did you know I was trembling? Like my first time in love Bet you never realize it You’re the girl I’m dreaming of OK Time to change the topic Will never bring love up again Did you know that in Trinidad? We have so much sugar cane And right now in New York A ferry sails to Manhattan And down in the subway A girl sings with a guitar in hand Never mean to upset you Please forgive me if I did But this time I can’t help it love take me on a skid Please forgive me for staring It was never my intention But you show so much kindness Though I found my redemption OK Time to change the topic And don’t bring love up again Did you know that in Florida? To day they had a hurricane And right now in New Jersey Doug Christi is the governor Republicans blame the recessions On President Barack Obama Just want to say I love you See my world in your eyes And if you shed a teardrop Will hurt me till I die OK Time to change the topic And don’t bring up love again Did you know I cook Chinese? Fry chicken, rice and chow mien
