So funny how the gentle breeze
Drifts mildly by I wasn’t there
And even worse I didn’t care
Those wasted breaths of memories

Of times I could have done much more
A fancy whim or smile to please
Another human soul to ease
And one more heartbeat to explore

So funny how a puff of air
Now whispers dreams I can’t ignore
Of lives I could have lived before
Forever frozen in despair

Of times I could have set all right
Instead of lilting unaware
Pretend that it all was fair
While blaming everything in sight

So funny how soft final gust
Drifts mildly through things held so tight
That all this pain I feel tonight
A payment of my broken trust

Of times I could have heard the breeze
Which brushed through dawns of far more just
Now waiting there amid the dust
To touch much wiser ears than these
