Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock

She don't know where she's going
The bloom upon her cheek is glowing
I look for her here and there

My lips too numb to speak
As we danced all night cheek to cheek
You made me feel the weakness of my will

When I raise my head
I didn't quite catch what she said
But I'll be soon to forget
That she stirred up my nerves
With her curls and her world
She's the best that ever were

For as you were when I first saw your eye
That's the way I remember you by
And I doubt that will ever change

For when you feel so cold
April always comes and goes
But you were the one that I chose
I accept the fate that you bestow me

In these present days
I lack the tongue to praise
You, and your secret ways
Of seeing what I'm needing
When I'm dreaming of leaving
You're such a wonderful being

You steal a man's eyes and women's souls
To you, you can never be quite old

I fear the day where you're not here
I'm sure that it will be clear
One day you or I will be gone

Like a day sunk in night
Let's not hold the flower past its prime
Or see the clock that tells the time
I guess somehow we'll know

When I think of her
I just wanna surrender
To her and say
That I hope in time you'll have a child
With your voice and your smile
You'll live on in it and in my rhyme
