ONCE I HAD A LOVER
Once I had a lover,
I haven\'t any more
She tried to kiss me on the lips
and fell upon the floor.
I am over 6 feet tall
and she is 4 feet nine,
her lips were never long enough
to reach right up to mine.
She stood upon a pair of steps
but still there was a gap
our lips were destined not to meet
her height a handicap.
And as she stretched with pouting lips
she toppled to the floor,
once I had a lover
but I haven\'t any more.
