They’re Gone

Dara Wier

You may have to wait another generation.
When was the last time you saw one?
Ever see one anymore?
Not a one.
Not any.
They’re gone.
Never see any anymore.
I haven’t seen one for as long as I can remember.
You don’t even see them anymore.
I hope you don’t have to wait that long.
Haven’t seen one in a blue moon.
When was the last time you saw one?
I haven’t seen anything like one for as long
as I can remember.
I’ve never seen one for a long, long time.
I don’t know when was the last time I saw one.
There was a time when I saw one but that was so
long ago I can’t remember.
Oh, they’ll be gone so long it’ll take a while
to ever see one again.
I haven’t seen one for a long time.|
When was the last time you laid eyes on one?
I haven’t seen one for as long as I can recall.
Have you seen one any time recently?
I haven’t seen one for so long I can’t recall.
I can’t remember the last time I saw one.
They’re gone.
