A bottle of wine left on a floor
Half-empty, half-full
My mind is elsewhere, wandering about things
Half-stupid, half-fool
You are the one constantly on my mind
Half-naked, half-dressed
What would I give, to be closer to you
Half-touching, half-pressed
I know, I know, I am out of my mind
Half-delirious, half-obsessed
And yet, the nagging thought continues
Half-bugging, half-pest
What chance do I have without money, without power
Half-jester, half-clown
To win you over my fair lady
Half-royalty, half-crowned
God has answered my silent prayers
Half-unwittingly, half-unaware
An artist drew us in a picture:
Me, fully dressed
And you almost certainly bare.
