She knows she will always be
The other woman
but not to me
To me she is the one
The last love I will meet
It does no good to explain
It can never be complete
It hurts when she's fatigued
Til she reminds herself how good
We feel when we're together and
Her time for family having passed
Alone in love with a married man
who isn't singing "Bye Bye Baby"*
Who will always have a place for her
In another unworldly place
A place so out of time
Southwest of her dreams
After telling the man in the mausoleum
What she has finally seen
They have set each other free
Knowing someone is with her now
Praying in a Lu-Gang temple
Someone who will forever be
All over her body with kisses
In love affectionately
