So I’m the first one in again

with the quiet and the window growing snow.

When I hear the furnace rouse itself

From its slumber, somehow suddenly I know

As my eye stops on one curled up in my lesson plan

That I’m just your little ampersand

When your voice springs from the intercom

with announcements and reminders and prayer

I remember how you made me feel

I was funny, I was thoughtful, I was rare

But like the jokes about my figure

kids think I don’t understand

I know I’m just your little ampersand.

After Christmas holiday you never asked to drive me home again

Sometimes in the staff room I’d catch your eye with “why’d it have to end”

But I know from how you worry at your wedding band

That I’m just your little ampersand

The last conjunction after every other and

I was just your little ampersand.

The Weakerthans are my all-time favorite band ever, and I'm a big fan of Samson's wife, Christine Fellows, too.

Beautiful lyrics, too.
