Hurt your eyes

Nobody told me,

This simplistic afternoon,

Some cantankerous old man,

Humming a lone, sad tune,

What it should feel like

Sitting all alone.

Watching the sidewalk drying

When the rain is gone.

And now the bluebirds sing

What the rain left unsaid

I watch the sunshine spraying

All over my bed

I know that you'd be lonely

Should the bluebirds have left

While I'm sitting here only

Hoping you catch my drift.

Now the sunshine's all gone

And the day is through

And all I'd be hoping is that

The moon shines bright on you

And should it hurt your eyes, lover

And make you feel blue

Close your eyes, think of me, lover

And the pain that I go through.

Yours sincerely

Jude
