Hesitant Poet

The candlelight went out tonight
Pack the bags
Don't put up a fight.
Maybe next time,
Maybe next time,
Maybe next year.
Maybe someday,
Maybe someday,
Someone will care.

The crowd of onlookers walked away,
And left me all alone
Another day.
Dinner, no, not tonight.
The alleys didn't give it up, alright?
Moving on now,
gonna find a way.
Gotta make it work someway.
Maybe next time,
Maybe next time,
Maybe next year.
Maybe someday,
Maybe someday,
Someone will care.
