You took the best of my love,
and then cast me aside. I was just an apple, and you had no use for the rind. Bouncing on the cobblestones, or in the gutter,- it didn't matter. I dragged myself on my knees, bruised and dimpled, bleeding, but I still kept hope in my eyes, (ever the optimist), and what a let down of the world it is, When I wait in the darkness, hanging on in the wake of the chill, and you never show, to take my hand. |

Wrote it because was thinking of her, reminded of her by "Leonard Cohen: I'm your man" DVD.
I miss her, I feel alone without her.
Not sure if "ever the optimist" should be in there.
