a virtual paradise
how many ways you've known me
before starting to think twice
once you sang a love song
the music sweet and low
the whispers of suggestion
from not that long ago
looking back and wondering
when did it all go wrong
one minute you were with me
I blinked and you were gone
now you sing a new song
the lyrics much the same
the chords you're playing different
but you sing the same refrain
in the ebony recesses
the shadows of your night
thoughts that divagate toward me
while she lays by your side
