If I leave my front door open

would u come and visit me?

Just 2 slander my name hopin'

that I would pack my bags and leave...

If I did would u remember

2 feed the dove and clean the cage?

And never count in front of the children

lest they die of old age



I don't really know y we have 2 go r separate ways

Whether or not we grow after the seeds r shown

Only time can say...



Can I offer u baklava?

or a bagel with cream cheese?

Will we say grace 2 r father

holding hands down on r knees?

R we better off just fighting?

U on ur side, me on mine

R the words that I keep writing...

only pearls b4 the swine?

What makes men claim that u're a friend

when u're not at all?

They knock u down and then,

they lift u up again, just 2 c u fall...

But like a bird I'll keep on singing...

a song that never leaves ur mind

If nothing else u've taught me one thing...

"Never cast ur pearls b4 the swine"
