TOAST AND EGGS

WORDS & MUSIC:   Earl P. Reinhalter


             I.  too tired to move
                 but too in love to sleep,
                 I draw the sheets back
                 and lie there in a heap,
                 pretending my hands
                 are her hands touching me
                 again.

            II.  she was shy,
                 unsure of her and me.
                 and I was scared
                 of setting myself free.
                 but these walls of sand
                 fell into the sea
                 of love.

           III.  come the dawn,
                 I wonder, should I rise
                 or keep my memories
                 fast before my eyes?
                 my thoughts are like
                 the sunshine in the skies,
                 making gold this world of greys.

        ENDING:  and I could imagine
                 going on for days
                 uninterrupted
                 by toast and eggs,
                 uninterrupted
                 by toast and eggs.
