I Suppose

She packed her bags in the middle of,
the night and never left a note or nothing.
I couldn't do anything when I awoke without my love.
If she felt so hard, I'm sorry I couldn't do anything,
to help her, but she's left, gone down the road
to some other man she knowed,
I suppose.

When we first met, she was alone
and terrified, she was poor too.
I never seen such a sad bunch of bones.
I did never think of saying, "I love you."
It all went by so fast, all the love,
but it was a black feather from a dove,
I suppose.

I wish you were by my side
but I know how things change.
She said after her ma went, she died.
Her old lover was a drunk on a rage
and she said she loved me.
Love him too did she,
I suppose so.

We had a falling out once
like all do at some time or other.
But we came back in a graceful dance.
She said she never wanted to be a mother,
I didn't want kids too,
I thought she knew,
I guess not I suppose.

When she lost her job, and I lost mine,
we moved to the other side of town
and got a place near a good place to dine.
But as fate might have it, it all fell down.
She became emotional, I just didn't know now
how to keep on going on, or where to go
I suppose.

She kept falling down harder and lower,
and at last I knew what's wrong.
Still I don't think I know her
anymore, it's such a long
time till tomorrow and
I don't think I understand
She will I suppose.

She packed her bags in the middle of,
the night and never left a note or nothing.
I couldn't do anything when I awoke without my love.
If she felt so hard, I'm sorry I couldn't do anything,
to help her, but she's left, gone down the road
to some other man she knowed,
I suppose.

I left the next night too,
I never did like the city so.
I walked down the road through
to the subway, I walked too slow.
I just missed the D-train,
back on the street it started to rain,
just a sky full of tears I suppose.
