Just in case you're sitting home alone with nothing else to do
|
I've written down three riddles and I've sent them off to you
|
|
What's grey and green and sometimes red and once belonged to you
|
I've give you one small hint my dear, everyone has two
|
Yes, It's the eyes of mine you said would help to see you through
|
The grey and green are still the same it's the crying red that's new
|
|
What's warm and strong and filled with love
|
And empty without you
|
Here's another hint my dear everyone has two
|
Yes it's these arms of mine you said, would always help you carry through
|
They're still warm and strong and filled with love it's the emptiness that's new
|
|
What hears your laugh and fells your smile and beats for only you
|
Here's a final hint my hear, I wish that I had two
|
Yes it's this heart of mine you said would find it's happiness in you
|
It still hears you laugh and feels your smile but you've broken it in two
|
|
These are just three simple riddles any child could see right through
|
I'm sure they're just a waste of time
|
But I had nothing else to do
|
