Where Were You?

Where were you

When my heart was battered

By the news of his existence?

Where were you

When I was up long into the night

With thought of him in my head?

Where were you

When she gently put her lips to his cheek

And I watched with eyes of green?

You were with me

Yes, that much I know

But were you laughing at my sorrow

Or did you have your hand

On my shoulder?
