matching pair

single diamond earring
laying on the floor
makes me wonder if you
miss it anymore
i pick it up and hold it close
and gaze into it's heart
and think of things we've done
hope you've still got the other one

single sock all bunched up
underneath my bed
reminds me of thoughts that i have
going through my head
took to long to realize
what was exactly wrong
when it came undone
hope you've still got the other one

single shard of mirror shining
from the garbage can
takes me back in time to when
i was your biggest fan
find something to cover it up
block it out from view
hide it from the sun
i hope you've got another one

single note comes bouncing in
some complex jazzy tune
takes me to a torrid night
under a lover's moon
quickly rush to the gun cabinet
then to the radio
and shoot it with my gun
it sure won't play another one

a single word can sum up
what i feel for you
i can't say it anymore
you think it's so untrue
i won't waste my words on you
i'd rather play the clown
i'd rather just have fun
i hope you've found another one
