Once I laughed when I heard you
say
That I'd be playing solitaire
uneasy in my easy chair
It never entered my mind
Once you told me I was mistaken
that I'd awaken with the sun
And order orange juice for one
It never entered my mind
You have what I lack myself
Now I even have to scratch my
back myself
Once you warned me that if you
scorned me
I'd say a lover's prayer again
And wish that you were there
again
To get into my hair again
It never entered my mind
