Tired toes tap on cooling concrete
as Mosquitos and the Blues are buzzing
Low and lonely in my ears tonight
Summer heat hangs heavy
like ancient memories and I-
Just wish you were with me
on these melancholy steps
and I wouldn’t trade your
company for
anybody’s shadow //
Baby, you don’t even know
Baby, if you could only see
the colors harping
these heartstrings
I can’t sit still
so I’ll keep swaying
and lift my mind
from that grave that
the neighbor’s dog
digs deeper everyday
beneath that old, old tree
and keep squinting up
at the hazy stars above me
See, I’ve already waited a decade
So I’ll keep waiting…
and I’ll keep on swaying
Really now // baby // what’s another day?
Yo
You gave me an idea for wordpress. TC
