She Was Alone. She Was Happy.

She wakes up alone--
Except for a cat by her side.
And she is happy

She eats breakfast alone--
Except for a cat by her side.
And she is happy.

She drives to work alone--
Leaving her cat at home
And she is happy.

She sings to the radio--
Alone.
And she is happy.

She runs alone--
She nods at him as he passes by.
And she is happy

He runs past her.
Alone.
And he notices...
That she is always
Alone
Except for her cat.

And he notices
That she is always
Happy.
