She Loves Me

Come with me, Ilona. I've missed you so much. How I envy you each evening, when work is through. For I have only me to be with, while you have you. Without you, Ilona, how cold my lonely life has grown. Are you happy alone, Ilona? Ilona, my own.

I must be cousin to a cat. I always wind up with a rat. I'm through with momentary thrills. I find I can't afford the bills. I resolve, come what may, I will not be this girl one more day!
