Analysis of I did not see
Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)
This morning you opened up your eyes
And bathed in water pure
You dressed in clothes that you had to
And blew your runny nose
The sun crept through your window pane
As you opened up your door
And you worked so hard most of the day
So tomorrow was assured
You walked home with feet that ached again
And you listened to the world
And the people ran around in your head
The ones that you preffered
For there were things you never said
