Lesson #8
Charles has a book
Charles shows them his crayons
Marie has the ball of Charles
Good for Marie
Charles misses his ball
George misses Marie
George misses a lot
George is alone
George looks around
He sees the park
It is depressing
George looks ahead
George sees the dark
George feels afraid
Where are the people out strolling on Sunday?
George looks within
George is adrift
George goes by guessing
George looks behind
He had a gift
When did it fade?
You wanted people out strolling on Sunday-
Sorry, Marie...
See George remember how George used to be
Stretching his vision in every direction
See George attempting to see a connection
When all he can see
Is maybe a tree-
The family tree-
Sorry, Marie...
George is afraid
George sees the park
George sees it dying
George too may fade
Leaving no mark
Just passing through
Just like the people out strolling on Sunday
George looks around
George is alone
No use denying
George is aground
George has outgrown
What he can do
George would have liked to see people out strolling on Sunday!
Charles shows them his crayons
Marie has the ball of Charles
Good for Marie
Charles misses his ball
George misses Marie
George misses a lot
George is alone
George looks around
He sees the park
It is depressing
George looks ahead
George sees the dark
George feels afraid
Where are the people out strolling on Sunday?
George looks within
George is adrift
George goes by guessing
George looks behind
He had a gift
When did it fade?
You wanted people out strolling on Sunday-
Sorry, Marie...
See George remember how George used to be
Stretching his vision in every direction
See George attempting to see a connection
When all he can see
Is maybe a tree-
The family tree-
Sorry, Marie...
George is afraid
George sees the park
George sees it dying
George too may fade
Leaving no mark
Just passing through
Just like the people out strolling on Sunday
George looks around
George is alone
No use denying
George is aground
George has outgrown
What he can do
George would have liked to see people out strolling on Sunday!
