Casablanca

Here’s looking at you, kid
Did you find someone new? I did
If way back when I’d been more me
Today we might have been more we

But we can’t go back, we can’t go back
We can’t coax our memories through that tiny crack
No, we can’t go back, we can’t go back
So here’s looking at you

The choice was made from sun to shade
From waves to shore, but evermore
Your smile stays in my mind’s eye
As time goes by

Frankly

Years and years of laughs and tears
I was there, being fair, cheering your life on
Waiting kind, hoping to find a soul connection
You were happy to pick and choose
Shuffling, waffling, generally aloof

But when Atlanta’s burning
I know you’ll be returning
With a tear and a twinkle in your left eye, well

Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn
Frankly, my dear, who do you think I am?
Let me be clear, we’ve gotta stop it now
Frankly, I wish I knew how

Time is not a friendly friend
Energy tends to be a rare commodity
Hard to do something new, though we want to
I’m your best supporting actress
Fading, trading my dreams for yours
But now you want to know:
“Where shall I go? What shall I do?”
Well, let me tell you, I say

Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn
Frankly, my dear, who do you think I am?
Let me be clear, we’ve gotta stop it now
Frankly, I wish I knew how

Forget Rhett, fiddle-de-dee Ashley
