Wrote this after a bad break-up, about two years ago.
I sat down and asked myself, "Well, OK, so what do you think would've happened if you stayed together -- gotten married, had kids, sat at her deathbed?" This is what I came up with. It was also my first attempt at copying the Heavy-Duty Harry Nilsson Songwriting Method™.

This is right up my alley, strange production, and some interesting chords in here as well.
