The Right Thing To Say

• 

When I can’t figure things out

& I seem to have lost my way

you always know the right things

the right things to say

I know words don’t come easy

that meanings go astray

but still you know the right things

the right things to say

I may have the learning

the diploma and B.A

But besides you I’m inarticulate

lost for what to say

At the end of each morning

at the end of each day

you always know the right things

the right things to say
