you'll never find another love like mine

she used to tell me,
you'll see,
just wait,
you'll find out how much
you're going to miss
me when i'm gone.
i can't remember her name
but she kept telling me,
that she could jump off a bridge
tomorrow and ruin my
life with sadness and sorrow.
you'll never find another
love like mine, she'd say,
standing in the doorway
with a rolling pin
as i watched tv, feet on
the coffee table.
it'll be like that Lou Rawls
song, she said,
you're gonna miss when
i'm gone.
just wait, mister. 
either you straighten up
and fly right or
you'll see.
