My dear
Why would you come to a place like this
Out here working with a face like that
Darling why you wanna waste all your time
(I know)
The things to which you are accustomed
More resemble sunny San Diego lovin'
Some day in eureka California I'll be
Suitable for
You
You
You
My face is unshaven
My confidence shaken
You must be mistaken
You must have gone blind
My room is a mess but it
Does not express the depth
Nor does it lessen the mess in my mind
I don't know why
Why I would try to deceive you
When you've already seen me naked
On this very floor
Thought I'd forget it
It all comes back if I let it
It's like you f*cked me in the heart
And darling, I don't regret it
I don't know why
Why we grow so distant
And now here you stand above me
Placing beads upon my skin
Thought it was over
Then you brush against my shoulder
And the memories taste like sea salt
What would grace my pallet if we were closer?
