DEAR DANNY


Dear Danny, how are you
It's your naughty girl who's blue
Taking the blues to work with me
Do you want to know I am in misery

Slept for 20 hours last night and today
I am depressed and want to throw this life away
Before I go there where I better not go
I am writing to you in case you want to know

I do not handle money well at all
No minutes left on my cell to see if you call
I missed your text mail a day late
I waited for another one that's not the fate

That comes to me in dreams
Where you only hear my screams
They have turned into cries of pain
Tonight I face the cold, dark rain

Is there a husband out there for me
Was I meant to be tied down to being free
Free for you and free for him
Free falling into hell for all of them

Who's going to come over and hold me close
Any one man going to love me most
More than himself, his roommate, his wife
Do I keep walking on in this life

You men love me for my thing
None of you will wear my ring
You threw away the one that was given
When you turned 50, then I didn't want to be livin'

He wouldn't wear one for me to say
Either, that he'd love me everyday
I am fun, the sweet of candy
Only wanted when it's handy

What do I do
Can't love with him or you
You both want me for sex
I want a man who protects

Me, from myself and I
Comforts me when I cry
I write you as it's my saddest season
To keep on living I need a rhyme or reason

Those things I need I do not find
To myself, it's so hard to be kind
The gentle care I can give I ask for now
Please, give me a reason to live somehow.
