Oh, lonely day
Quiet day
Some times to myself
to think and say:

Now it’s over, now it’s fading
like the sunset in the distance
I don’t know why
I even tried.

And she could tell me it was different
and that it did some good
but I could tell—
she didn’t mean it.
She kept her eyes away from mine.

On this lonely day
a soft day
Underneath this single tree
I think…
About him and me.

Now it’s over, now it’s fading
like the sunset in the distance
And I-I-I-I—
don’t know whyy
I even tried.
