i walk away
i think i got it beat
this system of dots and corners
as i get in my car
shivering
driving home
to crawl between the sheets
where my lover sleeps
and she’s got it beat too i think this system
as she sleeps
i draw close to embrace her
but she wakes up sharply
she pulls away
Damn….
talked to somebody who just saw Leonard Cohen in San Francisco…
talking about his lyrics…
that undeniable truth and the beauty of it…
and this feels beautiful and true and painful.
It’s wonderful.
yeah, the systems a lil different for the ladies…
