We met one gloomy morning,
Right In front of the coffee shop
A breeze blew by and snatched my napkin
And I saw her cherry lips
Her cheeks were rosy from the chill
And crinkled by her smile
And all she really said was
“That pesky autumn wind”
Right there I was hooked
I had fallen
I was dead
In truth I was flabbergasted
Simply at what she said
And it was then I knew I was gone
And would never really return
The girl with cherry lips
Had firmly stole’ my heart
Days had turned to weeks
And weeks had turned to months
Her cheeks stopped being rosy
Her cherry lipstick forgot’
I hadn’t seen it coming
The storm the wind blew in
And I don’t know if I’d have rathered
Have known before the fling
Eventually she left
leaving cold in her wake
But I knew it’d take one word
And I’d once again be sinked’
Perhaps years later,
Or maybe in another life
she’d look again at me and say
“What pesky autumn wind”
She’ll say it with a smile
She’ll say it with a smirk
She’ll say it like there’s lime straight upon her lips
And again, I will be hers
