Something Left

1960's




Before you go away
Take one last glance
Although the years were lost
Somewhere
There's something left worth wanting
Something worth
A tear or two
For that

It takes so long
To learn...
To give...
So very long to learn.

And I waited
For someone worth the learning
And, now, what I know
Must I forget?
Isn't there something left worth learning?
Something worth
A tear or two
For that?

It takes so long
To learn...
To forget...
You.
