Eleanor Rigby lives next door
She yelled at me once about my gutters
Otherwise no words from her have ever been uttered
Alone in her condo, she putters
Is she lonely or just a ******?
Did she suffer at the hands of a lover
And never recovered?

I spend time alone
In my head
Thinking about things
That might have been
Win or lose?
I look within
A dreary day
Can defeat life's purpose
I choose to look beneath the surface
Everything is done on purpose

A man smelling of spicy after shave
tickles my nose

I wonder if you remember
That day in September
When we were together
I still remember your black sweater
Maybe this could last forever
A memory I will always treasure
A cozy dinner in candlelight
It all felt so right
On that harvest moon night
Came a shining white knight
And a kiss at midnight
But when December came
You were no where in sight
The cold winter darkness came
That ended the light

Rain on my window pane
Droplets connecting into a
single chain
Drop by drop
Again and Again
Into a mellow refrain

Washing the earth
Helping to make the flowers burst
The earth is not cursed
Nothing is perverse
In the universe

When all hope is lost
And your money is dwindling
And your ship is sinking
An angel sent pennies from heaven
It came as a blessing
To end my stressing
To teach me a life lesson, I reckon
Giving me a new direction
To stop the regression and
End my depression
