Changes.
None of us are who we were,
We lose our teeth, we lose our hair.
Our sight goes dim, our joints all ache,
Every day we slowly wake
To another day without any chores
And so we venture out of doors.
To supermarkets with bulging shelves
We wish we could indulge ourselves.
But times are hard
Money's scarce.
You have no need to check your purse.
You know damed well, what lies within
Just enough to buy a tin
Of beans or spaghetti, that's your choice.
You want to scream, and raise your voice.
But there's no point
Good times have flown,
And so you wander back alone
Back to the flat so cold and bare
There really is no comfort there.
But there you go, to relive the past.
Your family's gone, you are the last.
You sit alone, forlorn and blue
Gazing through a misty hue,
The times you had
The fun, the joys.
The photo's of young girls and boys.
Where are they now, alone like you?
Sitting there alone and blue.
Kitos.
