Woke up late in a fog
Took a pill walked the dog
Down Levon onto Birch
Heard the sound of the organ
Inside the church
Floated on down to Vine
We did a hundred times
Felt the leash pulling hard
Towards a family
Of rabbits in your old yard
The last that I heard
You’d settled down
In South Bend
& married a girl
Whose folks own the bar
That you tend
Up above village square
Saw some birds huddled there
Chirping on power lines
They seemed happy
Just to be with their own kind
The last that I heard
You’d settled down
In South Bend
& married a girl
Whose folks own the bar
That you tend
& you’d had a baby
Maybe by now
You’ve had ten
But I want to see you again
In the park there’s a pine
With your name next to mine
& the heart that you carved
Still surrounds us
I feel it there always
