Woman is not gregarious.
There was a couple, who lived for many years,
Inseparable and indispensable.
No sooner was she dead than he married another.
Inseparable and indispensable, he found her.
A widow can be alone.
A widower feels lonely.

Inseparable
Written by chuck jackson and marvin yancy
Inseparable, thats how well always be, inseparable, just you and me
Its so wonderful to know youll always be around me
Incredible, what you are to me, incredible, you bring out the woman in me
With your style of love, inseparable, yes, we are
Were like a flower to tree, like words to a melody of love
Theres no way we can break up, no words that can make us blow our thing
Were just inseparable, thats how it is, inseparable for the rest of our years
Its so wonderful to know youll always be around

She became so important to them that they wondered how they had ever managed without her in the past. And the longer she stayed with them the more indispensable she became, so indispensable in fact that their one fear was that she might some day move on.

Breathing
the most essential
is inside you
and you take it
days and nights
air
invisible and yet so
necessary
in fact
indispensable
tell you what
they tell you perhaps
what is necessary and what is indispensable
is invisible
and tell you what
it is free

The men who create power make an indispensable contribution to the Nation's greatness, but the men who question power make a contribution just as indispensable, especially when that questioning is disinterested, for they determine whether we use power or power uses us.

Geraldine And John
(words and music by Joe Jackson)
See the bright red sports car, see the happy couple
See their clothes so white and their skin so pink
See them playing squash gotta keep their bodies supple
Now they kiss goodnight but tomorrow they'll be thinking
All day long - all day long
Chorus:
Geraldine and John
See the happy couple - so inseparable
And the beat goes on
And for better or for worse
They are married but of course
Not to each other
Geraldine and John gotta keep it under cover
See they scheme and sweat but it's all worthwhile
Now he goes back home to a wife who's not a lover
Now her eyes are wet but tomorrow she'll be smiling
All day long - all day long
Chorus
And the feeling's getting stronger
That they can't go on much longer
Somewhere down the track
Something has to crack
Geraldine just packed all her things and went to mother
Johnny seems OK happy wife happy home
See the scar on his face from the day he met her brother
But nothing hurts no more, nothing more than being lonely
All day long - all day long

Widower is hopeless
A widow is the pod shed seed.
A widower is the seed spilled pod.
Seed can remain; pod disintegrates.
A widower is the most unfortunate.

Nellie Clark
I was only eight years old;
And before I grew up and knew what it meant
I had no words for it, except
That I was frightened and told my Mother;
And that my Father got a pistol
And would have killed Charlie, who was a big boy,
Fifteen years old, except for his Mother.
Nevertheless the story clung to me.
But the man who married me, a widower of thirty-five,
Was a newcomer and never heard it
Till two years after we were married.
Then he considered himself cheated,
And the village agreed that I was not really a virgin.
Well, he deserted me, and I died
The following winter.

Guilt is not so to the guilty
The one who married as second or second time,
The one having a concubine or is cuckolding.
An eloper, a paramour, an incest sinner,
A widow in love, a widow to wed, or a love
Across the cast and creed, all I abhorred.
The concept would have been different
Had I been involved in any of them.
Guilt is the guilt to one till one commits it.

The young widow
Not an apple, stolen and bitten,
Not the wine, sore and spit,
But a Villa, just lived in
And emptied is a widow
She is a refined Villa,
Hence a refined virgin.
A widow is much renowned.

When the Watchman Saw the Light
Winter, summer, the watchman sat there looking out
from the roof of Atreus' palace.
Now he has good news to report. He's seen the fire light up
in the distance and he's happy; besides, the drudgery's over now:
it's hard to sit there night and day in heat and cold,
waiting for a fire to show
on the peak of Arachnaion.
Now the longed-for signal has appeared. Yet when happiness comes
it brings less joy than one expected.
But at least we've gained this much: we've rid ourselves
of hope and expectation. Many things will happen
to the house of Atreus: no need to be wise
to guess this now the watchman has seen the light.
So let's not exaggerate.
The light is good; and those coming are good,
their words and actions also good.
And let's hope all goes well.
But Argos can do without the house of Atreus.
Ancient houses are not eternal.
Of course many people will have much to say.
We should listen. But we won't be deceived
by words such as Indispensable, Unique, and Great.
Someone else indispensable and unique and great
can always be found at a moment's notice.

The couple of our time
Often seen together
In company of each other
Doing things together
Making things work together.
The artificial Siamese twins
Here they come again
Doing their thing
In their own way with style.
The atmosphere is filled with envy and jealousy
Yet they ignore the obvious
Holding tight to their doctrine
Believing it will see them through.
The inseparable
Couple of our time.
You are meant for each other?
I wish you the best.

A Best Friend
What happened to us?
We were always inseparable
But now so far apart
As I pass by
I watch you with her
We used to be like that
Always telling secrets
Gossiping about things
I miss that
But you've gone
And left me here
Looking for a replacement
Luckliy I've found one
And I love her more than I did you
Some best friend you are

A birthday wish
Let me wish you, hi
On your birthday
With all you desire
And much higher
This wish brings to you
All good luck and fun
Which will, for sure
Make your living a peaceful run
Day and night are inseparable
Gain and loss are inseparable
These will not make you miserable
As to balance them you are capable
Let you dream to reach high
But stay soft to those low and dry
Your kindness makes their cry
Heard and done away with, try
Where you are, is not the matter
But, where you are heading is the pointer
To where you will reach and glitter
Know, understand and if need, the path you alter
But miss not enjoy the moment
You live and pass through at the present
As each second is designed for pleasant
Occurrence and for joy instant
Never feel you are alone
Never feel you are lost and gone
Lot many good things ahead are on
Waiting for you, since the day you are born
