a lot of water's
spilled over that dam, baby,
maybe mostly because of
the kind of man that I am;
and you could say that
even including today
I still carry a torch for you,
but that might only be
because of a temporary lack of
anyone else to do;
all in all, it's been a long summer
and promises to be an even longer fall
from you, but still,
I am no longer pushing
my stone
up your hill.
