the girl who wasn't there came back, tap, tap.
sitting there, she wasn't there with a puppy in her lap.
with the hood from her hoodie pulled down over her face,
tap, tap, in her lap, was no puppy in it's place
there was no wind whipping round
to spoon up rubbish from the ground.
the things she did, they couldn't charm
protecting puppy with walls of arms
so you see, as i said, once before, when i'd seen
she wasn't there,with no puppy, arms and charms
had never been...
