Goodnight Colleen

Its time to sleep

And there’s not much more to say

I could try again with calmer words

But you’re not listening anyway

 

When next we see the morning light

Could have dreamed up something pure and bright

And those excuses that you so detest

All drifting on the sea of rest

 

Goodnight Colleen

My eyes are hot

And my mouth is dry and dumb

Your anger burns my shoulder blades

But my stomach’s cold and numb

 

When next we see the morning light

Could have dreamed ups something pure and right

And those excuses that you so detest

All drifting on the sea of rest

 

Goodnight Colleen

Goodnight Colleen

 

Goodnight.
