Careless folds
Someday I won't ask too many questions
someday I won't what I say won't be the wrong thing
someday I won't hurt anybody
someday I won't worry about women
Yesterday I asked too many questions
yesterday I failed to sweep her off her feet
yesterday I argued because I don't want to lose a chance with the best I've seen
yesterday I said all the wrong things
yesterday I hurt her feelings
Today I didn't ask any questions
today I crawled on my hands and knees
today I made epileptic apologies
today I tried to make it better
tomorrow I'm going to sit and wait quietly
tomorrow I'm going to enjoy another day
tomorrow I'm going to sing songs with another woman
tomorrow I'm going to wonder what the one I've upset is doing
tomorrow I'm going to dream of watching a sunrise with a Jewish Princess
and forty of her closest friends.
I don't expect anything.
But I'll appreciate any gift I get.
I have so many to offer.
I don't expect anything.
Anything at all.
It's only love and friendship I'm searching for
only love after all.
And as far as love with a Jewish Princess
Maybe not ever.
