Venus & Mercury

First day of December and the sky is as gray

As the sweater that you wore and the very first day

When the wind did howl and the wolves did growl all around you

I passed you on the street you looked a little older

A voice inside my head said you really should have told her

But the words escaped me and somehow lately I've been tongue tied

Driving through Nebraska with the temperature rising

I thought i saw the answer way off on the horizon

Though I didn't know the question yet I thought that I should mention it because
