Peter's Lament

It's four in the morning.
Of course I'm awake.
I'm outside wandering down your street.

I went to your window.
It was icey and closed.
You look so different now with your hair all in curls
and those rich girl clothes.

Oh,
It was just a game.

I knocked on your window,
You didn't move from your bed.
Another man slept beside you on your pillow.

And I know you're all grown up now.
And it wouldn't be much fun.
But why, why, why did you have to go?

Oh,
It was just a game.

You never gave me that thimble.
I guess you forgot.
Just like you forgot how to fly.

Now there's no one here to help me
to catch my shadow.
It's just me and the stars alone up in the sky.

Oh,
It was just a game.

I know a place where dreams are born
And time is never planned.
