She loved him through the thunder,
she adored him through the rain,
thought that his eyes so doctored
would help her see through the pain.
But Brown has turned to umber
with soft whispers turned to shouts
and idol’s feet in quicksand
has transformed her dreams to doubts.
Kennedy or Madison,
Slipp’ry mermaid on a hook,
ain’t getting any younger,
prays and kneels for what mistook.
Mistook the verse of poet
as character of the man
as left him in the sunset
when discovered words were sham.
Put trust in a pretender,
believed in shape of his heart,
went down to the boulevard
where she did a walk about.
Used to rock to his anthem,
would sing all his songs by heart,
not easy when your idol
shatters in a thousand parts.
Her Brown transformed to umber
when soft whispers turned to shouts.
Has clay of feet, her idol,
deception’s turned dreams to doubts.
She loved him through the thunder,
she adored him through the rain,
thought that his eyes so doctored
would help her see through the pain.
