Well he agreed wholeheartedly before I finished my sentence
|
Which led me to believe he wasn't listening in the first place
|
My distracted beholder looked over my shoulder to his sweet beheld
|
|
All the church bells are competing with the birds
|
Their hearts are bleeding
|
Their sweet songs they dance round my head
|
They sounded a warming each night
|
And each morning from the edge of my bed
|
|
And so call on me soon
|
The city's so fun
|
If you can't find the sun
|
Just turn on a lamp and pretend that it's one
|
|
We kissed in a cafe, held hands on a escalator
|
Made out at a bus stop then on the bus
|
For what time has erased
|
I still know how it tasted
|
If a memory is a thing you can trust
|
|
Now all the sweethearts in between us can spin around like ballerinas
|
They can go get a room with a don't disturb door
|
It's like money or fame if it eludes you again
|
Makes you hate those who have it even more
|
|
A man was astounded on entering heaven
|
All the money he'd lost in his life equaled exactly what he'd found down the
|
|
cracks of seats of trains
|
Even reached into drains just to hold the cold coin in his hand
