Back in 1975 when cupid saw me take a dive
I didn't think that I'd still be
Thinking of you now so wistfully.
You never took me through your hallway
Never led me up the stairs.
Past the years of useless longing
And where you used to say your prayers.

And it's hard for me to stay
Harder still to stay away.

The whisper of your mind
Ties the flowers to the rain.
