How many miles must Guillermo walk?
Before all my good intentions are more that just talk...
How many shoes must his toe wear thru?

Some people have someone to hold them when they are lonely
Some people have someone to call their one and only

Shaking her head, "Yes, I know…

Too hot for a blanket. Too hot for a sheet

But don't say, "I love you,"
as you walk out…

IF I WAS A CATERPILLAR
If I was a caterpillar this is what I’d do

Trees and me
