I Wonder What Happened to Him

I'm the green young gentleman

And you're the lady with the past

I admit I'm insecure about

How long we will last

I sort through in my mind

The little that I know

But the only things I find

From where my musings go

Is that kind of confusion

That just makes more questions come

About the wild and shady world

That you must have wondered from

You see, I have no real complaints

Of how you've left your past behind

I guess what gets me worried

Is you've erased him from your mind

I wonder what happened to him

Your past is a canyon

I'm a stranger on the rim

Looking down below

To where it's misty and dim

But, where there's still shining

A faint glow from a light

It makes me wonder where he is tonight

That drawer of your old photographs

Sits there like detective's leads

With the packets full of letters

That I do not dare to read

And then there is that negligee

That is made for candlelight

You know, I've never seen you wear it

Was it used on other nights?

You see, dream lover of a lady

What shakes me to the core

Is the thought as you caress me

You've done this all before

I think about the future

With me out and others in

Will I, too, have disappeared

Like I've never ever been?

I wondered what happened to him

Your past is a canyon

I'm a stranger on the rim

I'm looking down below

To where it's misty and dim

But, where there's still shining

A faint glow from a light

It makes me wonder where he is

I wonder where he is

Can't help but wonder where he is tonight
