Once I laughed when I heard you saying
That I'd be playing solitaire
Uneasy in my easy chair

It never entered my mind

And once you told me I was mistaken

That I'd awaken with the sun
And ordered orange juice for one
It never entered my mind

You had what I lack, myself
Now I even have to scratch my back myself


Once you warned me that if you scorned me
I'd say a lonely prayer again
And wish that you were there again

To get into my hair again
It never entered my mind


Once you warned me that if you scorned me
I'd say a lonely prayer again
And wish that you were there again

To get into my hair again
It never entered my mind
