Footprints

Footprints On the Moon

I get up in the morning
and I clear my eyes,
and I yawn and contemplate
the problems on my mind,
Down a cup of coffee
and I brush my teeth
and I put on a smile
for the world to see

I can’t put a finger on it
but I can
see there is some merit
on the other hand
why I’m tearing up
from movie plots
that plug a sense of
someone else I haven’t got

I get so emotional
and sad and cry
and regret that I always
seem to have to find
someone that I haven’t
quite yet defined
and I guess
it’s the burden of my life
I’ll never forget and
I’ll just be preoccupied
so I’m set on finding
someone who’s just right
to impress on me
until the end of time
and won’t get
worn away anytime soon

so I’m set on finding
someone who’s just right
to impress on me
until the end of time
and won’t get
worn away anytime soon
like footprints on the moon
