Conversation Lags

The birds along the power lines
Have taken to the air
The cat up in the window looks
But doesn't seem to care
There wasn't any warning
And she didn't pack her bags
But I still miss her singing
When the conversation lags
"Come to me you heavy laden
Come to me and I will give you rest"
The gravedigger's sad for all
The things that go unsaid
It's hard to have a life
When you are living in your head
Now that she is missing
I can see most of the snags
But I still miss her laughing
When the converstaion lags
"Come to me you heavy laden
Come to me and I will give you rest"
