Thinking down that road
Mike at 53 1967 (New York)
I keep thinking about her still
I probably ever will
I know I should move on
A memory I just can’t kill
I didn’t know her that well
That day she cast her spell
It’s time to move on
Why I loved her I just can’t tell
Maybe it was her pretty smile
I’ll think on it for a while
I know I gotta move on
Never gonna walk her down that aisle
Maybe it was her pretty face
Or the night we embraced
I know I should move on
A memory I can’t replace
Raven Hair her name was Ann
Writing rhymes the best I can
I know that she’s long gone
All that’s left is this old man
