Pull down the blinds and stare at my blank screen
[]            []           []           []
Some voice is asking how my weekend's been!
[]          []           []        []
Planes go across the sky of Petersham
[]              []          []                    []
One day I will see all the hope that's stored in them

[]              []   []         []
The pale underside catches the light
[]            []           []           []
Like a see-saw I need more weight to carry me up
[]            []           []           []
Maybe one day she will just say that she's happy enough, happy enough

Leaves haven't fallen yet but winter's been too long
[]            []           []           []
Grief hits me like a succession of time bombs

[]                []     []               []
I've run out of reasons to explain it away
[]            []           []                 []
Like a see-saw I need more weight to carry me up
[]           []                  []                 []
Maybe one day she will just say that she's happy enough
[]            []                       []                  []
If I was older then I would hold her tight and say "don't you ever leave me"
     []              []                   []                 []
And then maybe one day she will just say that she's happy enough, 
           []            []           []           []
happy enough
