...is one of my favorite songs by The Lucksmiths (oh, how I would love to marry their songs). It makes me want to hug mittens and take them home. Sadly, in this country all we have are potholders.
Listen!
Should you find me forsaken
On some neighbor's fence
Out walking one morning
When winter relents
All sodden and weatherworn
Threadbare and fallen apart
If you notice me next to you
There on the train
Revealed as the evening rush eases again
Don't leave me languishing
Take me in hand, and take heart
Fingers crossed, all is not lost
Should you find me forsaken, forgotten, forlorn
Unclaimed and uncared for, neglected, ignored
Abandoned, asunder, apart and alone
Discarded, disposed of, dispensed with, disowned
Lost and all lonesome, bygone, bereft
Squandered, unwanted, cast off and adrift
Dropped and deserted, mistreated, mislaid
Overlooked, derelict, stranded, astray
Fingers crossed, all is not lost

I absolutely love this band, so much that I listen to them while jogging. Some of their songs are not upbeat at all and people may wonder why I have them on my running playlist, but the tunes put me in a good mood and somehow, that works for me. My sister heard this song when I got home from jogging and she said, "Ang lungkot naman ng pangjogging mo."
