I saw you laughing you looked at the ceiling pretending to be so non existant but you couldnt hide that smile or your eyes and I recall talking about an old freind named regret his name is so worn out and dusty just like the suit hes burried in. (chorus) just say goodbye to all the little things because there not as real as we thought and say hello to a trophy case of twisted memories because now thats all we got. and we'll try to work things we'll talk on the phone for hour or two just so that we can feel somewhat comfortable so we'll toast to the good time we'll toast to the bad we'll talk about all of the problems we had and try to find an optomistic response (chorus) just say goodbye to all the little things because there not as real as we thought and say hello to a trophy case of twisted memories because now thats all we got. so maybe just this time we'll take the long way and keep eachother company so neither of us fell alone.

I'm not a very experienced writer but I'm a big fan of Jim Morrison and his poetry/lyrics and always aspired to be able to do write like that. My question is how many people write their poetry with the intention of it being a song and how many people write it just to be read as poetry. And for anyone who does both how does your approach differ between the two. By the way I thought the song on this page was well written but I guess it is hard for me to get the full impression without knowing the tune or kind of song your intention was.
