My Life

Back Romance in rhyme I understand Alone in a crowded room To Geri Happy Birthday Note I've had the tests A few days Without you My Life You're not there Time is not measured Muddy Towpath To ebony

I travel England's waterways
It gives me peace of mind,
And almost every day I pause
To take time to unwind.

I marvel at the beauty
Of seasons passing by,
And know that it will still be there
When I come to die.

I smoke, I drink, but don't take drugs
They're really not for me,
My time is much to precious
To waste it on the wee
d.

I travel almost every day
Just a mile or two,
And mostly when I reach a lock
I carry on right through.

To most my life's idyllic
And I really must agree,
But still there's something missing
A companion for me.

So as I travel day by day
Along this great big puddle,
From time to time I'd like to pause
To share a hug and cuddle.
