|
I once loved a girl, but she couldn't take that I visited troublesome houses. |
|
She'd say, when I got home, to leave her alone. |
|
She could taste trouble on my mouth. |
|
When she was gone I missed her, I did...and still went to troublesome places |
|
I couldn't withstand a glorious day without seeing these troublesome faces. |
|
And quiet eluded me, and keeps from me still, though I need my own bed and its solace |
|
Day's noises steal in and copper my will, and I face the evils that follow us. |
|
I once had a house, and my family knew where to find me if ever they needed |
|
Troublesome houses were foreign to them |
|
They thought all papa's orders I heeded |
|
Now they can't fnd me; they don't have my numbers, and just hear reports of my doings |
|
Troublesome houses are not in their minds, though it's in those I do all my moving. |
