In the Back of My Mind, pt. I

On a plane, in the sky
Sat a regular, average guy
‘Bout five foot seven or eight
Maybe one eighty-one in weight

Now, this man and this plane
Above the snow and sleet and rain
Flew to the chilly state of Illinois
But this was not a trip of joy

He was here for his friend Marie
For she was quite suicidal you see
He up and left his girlfriend Gale
Back in the southern Fort Lauderdale

While gone, he trusted Frank, his friend
Their trust, he thought, would never end
But back to the average, regular guy
Riding on a plane in the stormy sky

Landing on the icy runway
This was about noon that day
He unloaded his things from the plane
In the snow and sleet and rain…
