an endless cycle of
green and yellow and brown...

Come sing me to sleep,
close my troubled eyes...

Hey now boy, would you let me be yours?
would you stand up and dance...

Somehow
in the silence...

I struggle with the button on my jeans. Jacket...

Just for this moment
i've found myself again...

As night spreads her skirts
and the snow flurries...

Stay with me
I grow softer at your touch...

And you wonder--who is
awake at this hour? people like me...

Driving down this road
Looking at the sky so blue, reminds me...

I cry myself to sleep at nights
pretending with the lights turned out...

I am soft and wide
like hips that have seen childbirth...
