Apple rinds, and scattered crumbs;
With spoon in foot it's time to dine.
Nothing like a dinner set for two,
Enjoyed in solitude to practice sums
That come from being alone with you.

Cracked China and spotted utensils
Accent that wax puddle brilliantly.

If only she had just come with me
... Sh-She really should have come.

Stare across the sea of drift wood
Into the blank that is "She Should..."

Yell a whisper "Um, Pass The Salt Please"
As I jog to the other table end,
Bring it back; slouch down in my seat.
... "Thank You" I said.

This dinner is just so distant,
To many leaves for just one instant.
I should have removed one,
I guess... I just expected more to come.

You know, you really should have come.

Can't seem to take my eyes away
From the cracked China on the table
... It used to lay so beautiful.

I really wish you just came with me.

But it's ok, I still enjoy your company.
I love that you're mine... All mine.
You know, you'll learn to love me in time.
It's important to realize a downfall
Is always followed by an uprise
........ My, oh my, sweet China Doll.
