A chapter in the book If The Jester Cried At Night

Tales of Furniture and Folly

by mrgrunty

I've got a cupboard full of yesterdays,
and broken dreams.
And a wardrobe with my picture on,
and promises.
** And anytime I, try to, open them I can't.
** It's not that, I don't want to, but I don't believe.

I've got a bed that's full of emptiness,
and could have beens.
And a lamp that turns on only when,
I dream of you.
** And anytime I, try to, open up I can't.
** It's not that, I don't want to, but I can't believe.

I've got a heart that's full of shooting down,
my onlyness.
And a mind that's quick to make up,
what it shouldn't see.
** And anytime I,try to, quiet them I can't.
** It's not that, I don't want to, but I should believe.

Please remember a song needn't have perfect meter.

p-s I think "onlyness" works quite well as a word and may have a chat to mr Oxford! hehe
