He was so kind such a gentleman
tied to the Oceanside
Lightin a match on the suitcases
latch in the fadin of night
Ruffled the fur of the collie
neath the table
Ran out the door through the dark
Carved out his initials in the bar
When the earth shook that was
all that it took for the
train to bring
All the loose ends would
surround me again
in the shape of your face
What makes me love you
despite the reservations
What do I see in your eyes
besides my reflection hang in time
Are you off somewhere
reciting incantations
Sim sala bim on your tongue
Carving off the hair of
someone's young
Remember when you
had makeup your hair
Call me Delilah
then I wouldn't care
