I didn’t say it then
A mother I don’t know
A life to live and grow
Before the evening when

I sat down in your chair
For coffee and dessert
Not knowing all the hurt
My future soul would bear

But I’ll live in that lie
Be confidently coy
To blissfully enjoy
Your chocolate mousse pie

Though so much time has passed
And you still cross my mind
A moment on rewind
When I got up so fast

With nowhere else to be
And didn’t take the time
A moment in its prime
A look from you to me

To thank you for the pie
You didn’t have to make
Whip, stir, cream and then bake
Since you knew it was my

Favorite thing to eat
And while it didn’t last
A love grown cold too fast
I thank you for the treat
