[length: 03:45]
[00:20.29]Now and then she re-reads the manuscript
[00:25.26]Of the entire torrid affair
[00:30.57]They compared their licenses
[00:32.84]He said, “I’m not a donor but
[00:35.44]I’d give you my heart if you needed it”
[00:40.35]She rolled her eyes and said, “You’re a professional”
[00:45.52]He said, “No, just a Good Samaritan”
[00:50.28]He said that if the sex was half as good as the conversation was
[00:55.78]Soon they’d be pushing strollers
[00:59.20]But soon it was over
[01:20.45]In the age of him, she wished she was thirty
[01:25.70]And made coffee every morning in a French press
[01:31.07]Afterward, she only ate kids’ cereal
[01:35.77]And couldn’t sleep unless it was in her mother’s bed
[01:41.07]Then she dated boys who were her own age
[01:45.78]With dartboards on the backs of their doors
[01:50.84]She thought about how he said
[01:53.20]Since she was so wise beyond her years
[01:56.33]Everything had been above board
[02:00.01]She wasn’t sure
[02:20.62]And the years passed like scenes of a show
[02:25.93]The professor said to write what you know
[02:30.65]Looking backwards might be the only way to move forward
[02:40.94]Then the actors were hitting their marks
[02:45.91]And the slow dance was alight with the sparks
[02:50.97]And the tears fell in synchronicity with the score
[03:00.99]And at last
[03:03.96]She knew what the agony had been for
[03:12.09]The only thing that’s left is the manuscript
[03:16.58]One last souvenir from my trip to your shores
[03:22.36]Now and then I re-read the manuscript
[03:27.38]But the story isn’t mine anymore
