Well, I had to run around
And decide what to take ~~
My cashmere blankets
~*~ Or my cats ~*~

Well, when you step back
Or it runs . . .
Its inevitable course *~*
Well, you can see
It was just something . . .
You rushed into . . .
To stave off loneliness

The emotion ~*~
Was not really real ~*~

Well, it was manufactured . . .
Out of my . . .
OOH . . . desperation ~~

I think you're missing a "baby" or two.
