Coulda figured this day

might just go this way.

Shoulda known twas likely

tis simply how it would be.

Why do you get my hopes up

if you’re not sure you can show up?

It just serves to bring me down

when you can’t “make it” into town.

I shouldn’t let it excite me

until in person I see…

cuz nothing with you is guaranteed;

I guess my morning has now been freed.
