A Lost Earring
Nobody knows I have it
But I know it’s still there
Your earring in my pocket
Let’s me pretend you care
You left it just the other night
I found it on the floor
Your earring in my pocket
Gives me hope that there is more
It’s just a little thing
It’s not part of the plan
With your earring in my pocket
For a moment I’m your man
I dream we love each other
And that we’ll always be
Together until the end of time
You say you’ll be with me
Nobody knows I have it
No one would understand
With your earring in my pocket
In my heart - I am your man
