How dare the Premier ignore my invitations?
|
He'll have to go
|
So, too, the bunch he luncheons with
|
It's second on my list of things to do
|
|
At the top is stopping by
|
Your place of work and acting like
|
I haven't dreamed of you and I
|
And marriage in an orange grove
|
You are the only thing in any room you're ever in
|
I'm stubborn, selfish and too old
|
|
I sat you down and told you how
|
The truest love that's ever found
|
Is for oneself
|
You pulled apart my theory
|
With a weary and disinterested sigh
|
|
So yes I guess I'm asking you
|
To back a horse that's good for glue
|
And nothing else
|
But find a man that's truer than
|
Find a man that needs you more than I
|
|
Sit with me a while
|
And let me listen to you talk about
|
Your dreams and your obsessions
|
I'll be quiet and confessional
|
|
The violets explode inside me
|
When I meet your eyes
|
Then I'm spinning and I'm diving
|
Like a cloud of starlings
|
|
Darling is this love?
