CHING CHING -
Hear the coins leaving our cash register
The one we call heart.
We can spare some small change
to each love we meet.
But we hold back the big bills
for the Big spend.
When he arrives, will we know it ?
It will cost us big time.
Big Money, Big Bills, Big Investments, Big Chills.
I'd be Leaving my Savings Account rather slim.
It's almost like playing the stock market.
Will He double my investment ?
Will I get a percentage of return ?
Will he leave me bankrupt -
having to start over from the bottom again.
Perhaps foreclosure would be better at this time.
Closing down my heart's spending.
It might be safer right now.
But if I cancel the credit -
then I'm forced to recall
that you can't receive profits,
nor increase at all.
Witholding the treasures
and the hope in my chest -
There's no chance of return
if I refuse to invest.



(comparing money spent --
to the giving of your heart)
