Sorry, My Mistake
A frozen tear melted here
Between the man-made lake
And the ice that wouldn't break
A drowning note fury wrote
That caused the earth to quake
Confidence to shake
Sorry, my mistake
The sun rose high
And went screaming by
And the moon surveyed the scene
Silent and serene
While cops set cones
Around broken bones
Saying, "For heaven's sake
What an obvious mistake"
Up came back down
While I was sewing up my stitch
And dreaming in the ditch
So sick of my sweet self
And everything I made
A friendly flare
Flashed mid-air
There was a twinkle in your eye
A smoke signing in the sky
And I feel deep in love
Asleep, looking wide awake
Like a wave that wouldn't break
Sorry, my mistake
