And the sun rose in the west

After the cow jumped over the moon,

And Father did know best

And morning came too soon.



The words had all been spoken

And action had held its sway.

Too late. It was not a token.

We both had entered the fray.



And the sun rose in the west

After the cow jumped over the moon,

And Father did know best

And morning came too soon.



In silence we rose from bed

Grimly dressing in the dark

Sharing the quiet with such dread.

The bite was worse that the bark.



And the sun rose in the west

After the cow jumped over the moon,

And Father did know best

And morning came too soon.



The relationship was altered

We were the same people yet

Uncomfortable now we faltered,

Different from when we'd last met.



And the sun rose in the west

After the cow jumped over the moon,

And Father did know best

And morning came too soon.



The reality was there

And it could not be escaped.

Disgust thickly charged the air

And through the great rents it gaped.



And the sun rose in the west

After the cow jumped over the moon,

And Father did know best

And morning came too soon.



The hot coffee should have helped

But I slopped it on my hand.

Suddenly, in surprise, I yelped

As I hadn't seen it land.



And the sun rose in the west

After the cow jumped over the moon,

And Father did know best

And morning came too soon.



After a beat, we both smiled

Then we lovingly embraced

We savored each other - not riled

The agony was erased.



And the sun rose in the west

After the cow jumped over the moon,

And Father did know best

And morning came too soon.
