Sleep Into Tomorrow [Rev]

All alone tonight; my Beloved’s here, but he’s sleeping
his way into tomorrow - the new duties at work - a new
responsibility as Pricewaterhouse Coopers landed him
with more than he bargained for - so

I’m not the only one going into shock as the New Year
approaches; I’ve got the Royal Variety performance as
company because everything else’s worse - that’s how
bad it is; daughter left with her best friend, son left with
 
A casual work acquaintance, my beloved left for bed to
sleep away the old year with impatience for tomorrow -
he can’t stand the wait for important things to happen
so I’m alone - and that’s the way it should be - IF I’m

Willing to remain the companion of my honest, sweet,
enthusiastic, unique beloved - my sweetheart has my
full support in overcoming his staggering obstacles - ;
my son came by with a friend in tow - another friend

Meeting them at the restaurant & I’m left alone which
reminds me of the time I was selling flowers on New
Year’s Eve & old Portuguese women sat around big
serving baskets while the young ones danced - I

Was the odd one out; today I’m the oddity again - as
long as my beloved regards New Year’s Eve an event
that’s intensely private it has a meaning that I will be
discreetly isolated as he goes off to try sleep his way
Into tomorrow…
