Verse 1:
+ [1,5: +/]
Reasoned verse, some prose or rhymes
Lose themselves in other times
And waiting hopes cast silent spells
That speak in crowded clues
It cannot be a part of me
For now it's part of you
Verse 2:
Careful plays on fields that seem to
Vanish when they're in between
And softly as I walk away
In freshly tattered shoes
It cannot be a part of me
For now it's part of you
Bridge:
[2: Well] Sunshine, ragtime
Blowing in the breeze
Midnight, looks right
+
Standing more at ease
Verse 3:
Silhouettes and figures stay
Close to what we had to say
And one more time a faded dream
Is saddened by the news
It cannot be a part of me
For now it's part of you
