I am still recovering,
Recovering from the shock.
My son came up for the weekend,
A great time we had together.
But I am still recovering,
Recovering from the shock.
We went out to dinner,
Enjoying more time together
With each other,
And that wonderful Italian food.
But I am still recovering,
Recovering from the shock.
We finished our meal,
The bill was called for
And set in front of us.
But I am still recovering,
Recovering from the shock.
He, my son, picked up the bill,
He paid for it!
Never in our history has he paid.
But I am still recovering,
Recovering from the shock.
I am still waiting for that first pint
Bought by him for me.
I’ve only been waiting twenty five years
Since he reached that age
Where he could buy me a pint.
But on this occasion he paid.
Paid for the dinner.
And I am still recovering,
Recovering from the shock.
