On the underside of your salutation
|
I can hear you turning inward
|
Hello is such a thin word
|
|
You're going to have to hide doubletime from me
|
Cuz I read our poetry, and I can see when it doesn't rhyme
|
|
You said you either wanted me home
|
Or you wanted to be alone[?]
|
Or you wanted to be alone
|
And I felt you decide
|
I have heard all the words you hold inside
|
|
We were knitted like yarn
|
In the morning you were the snooze button on my alarm
|
And now goodnight is just the gesture of an arm
|
Well I think I understand
|
But I don't think I agree
|
Sometimes I want to amend
|
And sometimes I just want to be free
|
|
If we can try forgiving
|
If we can try to go on living
|
Like some kind of amateur team
|
Anyone can see that love
|
Is waiting U S more than M E
|
That's for me
|
Please
|
