Cecily Smith Meaning
| [The war was over, I was living with my folks I yelled upstairs, “Hey mom, I’m off to grab some smokes” And my father called, “Why you need to smoke so late?” Well I’d lied, I had a date Free from my folks’ enslavement Skippin’ along the pavement To see a brunnette, who I’d never met But I never would forget, how she looked in that dress How she stuck out her hand and said “My name is Cecily Smith and I hope you like music ‘Cause I’ve got two tickets for La Traviata” That’s when I said, “I hate opera” She laughed and said, “Well lucky for you That you’re with Cecily Smith Who cares what you are listening to It’s who you’re listening with” So we take our seats, her hands are folded in her lap If not a kiss, then I at least will get a nap So I close my eyes as the orchestra begins Then I hear violins And the hair on my neck was rising A feeling new and surprising But it wasn’t the sound that made my heart pound No, it was because I found her hand is in mine , And that’s where it will stay until they play the final chord She says, “Were you bored?” And I say, “I guess it wasn’t quite so bad; It was the best time that I ever had” She laughed and said, “Well lucky for you I got seats to Beethoven’s Fifth, Who cares what you are listening to It’s who you’re listening with.” A perfect wife A perfect life The time exploded like a bullet from a gun A week, a year, and then a marriage, and a son And a rental where I still can hear her laugh When I play the phonograph So I let the music guide me And Cecily sits beside me A girl of nineteen, with a nervous marine Feel her head begin to lean, as the melody soars And though it was real, it doesn’t feel like it could be That night when you said to me That I’ve got two tickets for La Traviata , It’s sad but true, how much I miss you I miss you Cecily Smith Life is not the things that we do It’s who we’re doing them with] |
