Dividing Day - Adam Guettel

Dashing as the day we met

Only there is something I don't recognize

Though I cannot name it yet I know it

Beautiful is what you are

Only somehow wearing a frightening disguise

I can see the winter in your eyes

Love telling me:

Thank you We're done here

Not much to say

We are together but I have had Dividing Day

So when when was this day

Was it on the church step

Suddenly you're out of love

Does it go creeping slowly

When was your Dividing Day

I can see the winter in your eyes

Love telling me:

Margaret we didn't

You courtesed I bowed

We are together but no more love

No more love allowed

When was dividing day

Was it on the church step

Did it happen right away

Were you lying next to me

Hiding what you couldn't say

How could I have guessed

Was my cheek upon your chest

An ocean away

When was when was when was Dividing Day
