Honey Bee

There was a time I could keep up with you

When you were faithful and your compass true

But then an (earwig) loosened your last screw

Now you look at me like someone new, what's new?



You are a comet, when you streak close by

The radios get weak

And all your teeth glow when you speak

Your language shocking, yes, but sweet



And now you buzz yourself to sleep



You're just a tired honey bee

Would you do this thing for me

Land softly yeah

Land softly yeah

Land softly



These are the photos that I kept

That's me crumbling bereft

But you're still smiling on my left

So it's not so serious as that

There was a time I would have laughed with you
