It's No Use

Paul Gerard Reed

It's no use

Leaning on a memory

Drifitng in your barge,

Thinking it was real

It never was,

It was just a mirage;

 

It's no use

Thinking about me

Like love was fair,

Reach out your arms

And try to hold me

I'm not there;

 

It's no use

Primping and a-preening

Making yourself nice,

Just look around

The room is empty

You've paid the price;

 

It's no use

Putting tears in your eyes

Wearing that sad frown,

Put your hand on your head

There's nothing there

I stole your crown.
