I never knew things could be so slow
|
I could wait so long
|
Be so still and calm
|
And get where I want, on your arm
|
|
Thin streaks of tar spill off your right eye
|
Where my fingers find
|
Their way there every night we sleep side by side
|
Your hands in mine
|
|
When you get here, it's so nice
|
It's just the part where you leave I don't like
|
|
Such a happy accident
|
A note in your sneaker at 10 in the morning
|
And all of my worry that you were offended
|
And the catch in my breath when you weren't
|
It's like I woke up and got handed a present
|
And I'm thanking you for it
|
|

Thanks
