Tenterhooks
It gets so that you wonder where the years are going,
Things left behind you just fade away.
Bad news has the wings good news must dream of growing,
Living takes a lifetime, dying takes a day.
Up in the highest trees across the widest ditches,
He was always the bravest and best.
In the back of the class he'd have us all in stitches,
You never knew what he'd do next.
He'd have us all on tenterhooks, from one day to another,
And I'll be thinking tenterhooks from now until forever.
When I was a young man and knew no better,
He'd play the Romeo, I'd play the fool,
If he found somebody game then he would let her
Make all the running as he made all the rules.
In those days of just a cold grey grope against a pre-fab wall,
A drizzle of kisses and go,

He's talk of touches and tongues to promise that's not all,
Thè next time how far would it go?
When I heard his name again, it came in laughter,
It came in summertime, but never in tears,
I could see him swinging brave from rope on rafter,
While we stood far below, knowing we'd never dare.
They say there was a kiss on a tissue where some lipstick dried,
By a note he should never have a read,
And a stain on another from the tears he'd cried,
The first and the last he'd ever shed.
I last saw him standing from a passing car,
I called as he was turning away.
In my dreams he answers that he's never far, And he'll be back at my door someday.
