we sat in the dark, taking in the beauty of the night. the hard wood floors, the glare of the computer screen, and the sounds of music.
-simple man-miss you love-sleeping to dream-push and pull-thinking about you-lost cause-bright eyes-halleujah-lilac wine-walking after you
ty's room pow wow...you know, it's kinda funny how i go crazy sometimes. it's crazy sometimes, looking in your eyes. it's funny sometimes, hearing you swear. oh, and did you know you had a cigarette in the back of your car? "what about the one in my driveway?!"
too bad i never learned to skip rocks like you do, too bad we didnt get attacked by coyotes, too bad my needle finger cactus shriveled up and died, i thought they were supposed to last forever, much like my thoughts of you.
waiting four hours for you in the library wasnt too bad, and feeling your hand on my shoulder was comforting. why didnt that cigarette break last forever? why did my buzz come so fast?
have i ever told you to listen to the flaming lips? have i ever told you that tiny dancer is one of my favorite songs? why did i have to get car sick when we were almost there?
yeah, it does seem a little late to think now, but, i think of you often. i wonder when you will be a reality, i wonder when you will go crazy like me.
haha remember me screaming for help? did you really think that guy would call the cops or beat you up? i did.
i dream of the city by the sea quite often. perhaps one day i will drift down the mississippi into the gulf..... one day my love, you will be here, real, alive and breathing, and i will be all yours....one day, right?
-------------------
Call you up in the middle of the night/Like a firefly without a light/You were there like a slow torch burning/I was a key that could use a little turning/So tired that I couldn't even sleep/So many secrets I couldn't keep/Promised myself I wouldn't weep/One more promise I couldn't keep/It seems no one can help me now/I'm in too deep/There's no way out/This time I have really led myself astray
Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here no there
Can you help me remember how to smile/Make it somehow all seem worthwhile/How on earth did I get so jaded/Life's mystery seems so faded/I can go where no one else can go/I know what no one else knows/Here I am just drownin' in the rain/With a ticket for a runaway train
Everything is cut and dry/Day and night, earth and sky/Somehow I just don't believe it.....
