[00:00.00]New Loneliness - Sarah Harmer
[00:08.06]There is just one apple on the tree
[00:12.34]
[00:13.54]It isn't like I'd hoped it'd be
[00:16.24]
[00:16.84]Yesterday when there was still you
[00:20.01]
[00:20.76]I looked  and I swear that I saw two
[00:24.39]
[00:25.45]Maybe a wandering white tail deer
[00:29.17]Came in the night to make it even more clear
[00:33.26]And left me just one  a Spartan no less
[00:37.29]To remind me of my new loneliness
[00:41.72]
[00:49.41]Now there is just one oar leaning against the wall
[00:53.45]
[00:54.02]What of our plans for paddles in the fall
[00:57.91]With the reeds grown high in a winding maze
[01:02.05]We were to follow old waterways
[01:06.13]
[01:06.70]Maybe a hovering dragonfly
[01:10.36]Will rest on a cattail and wonder why
[01:14.01]
[01:14.58]There is no clamoring at the shore
[01:18.02]
[01:18.57]Of two in a canoe with each an oar
[01:23.14]
[02:07.83]Now there is just one pillow on the bed
[02:12.34]Where a solitary someone lays her head
[02:16.61]A stack of books meant to be read aloud
[02:20.07]
[02:20.84]Closed and dusty awaiting a crowd
[02:26.02]
[02:29.61]Maybe a spider in a high corner
[02:33.28]Keeps his tiny eye on the still mourner
[02:37.09]And waits for the other to slip under the cover
[02:40.99]
[02:41.56]And relight the dark candle lit between lovers
[02:47.66]
[02:49.41]And replay the melody made by two lovers
