#53 Time To Time Some Dark Before

Time to time,
Some dark before,
I wish I could,
Remember more.

When that One Thing
That happened then,
Was time to time,
Some dark before.

I wish I could
Remember more.
Helped the neighbor
Off the floor.

Was time to time,
Some dark before,
The whispering
neck-ache distant road.

Helped the neighbor
Off the floor.
She sat there two days
Dark before.

The whispering
Neck-ache distant road.
The sound of highway
Dark before.

She sat there two days
Dark before.
She sat there two days
On the floor.

The sound of highway
Dark before.
Next night ambulance,
At her door.

She sat there two days
On the floor.
They took her somewhere
Nevermore.

Next night ambulance,
At her door.
It was at night,
Took her away.

They took her somewhere
Nevermore.
Time to time
Some dark before.
