Car exhaust and cracked pavement have me in
a slumber.
I’m humming softly, trying not to forget
your number.
A rhythm practiced is a dance earned,
but I’ve ran out of coins for the
juke box.
Leave your pockets
upturned,
empty the bus-fare that’s your
hiding in your
sock.
Restless hands need something to grasp;
restless hands reach for the hem of your dress.
Restless heads make rustled sheets;
restless heads are left to sweat not sleep.
Save me a
prayer
‘cause I’ve exchanged all mine for a
little more time with you,
to try to make you
mine.
A heavy
heart
puts its weight on the
gas ‘cause I’ve spent all my
reason at your
expense. I could never take a
hint, romance never made
much sense.
Restless hands need something to grasp;
restless hands reach for the hem of your dress.
Restless heads make rustled sheets;
restless heads are left to sweat not sleep.
Restless hands are grabbing at a thread;
restless hands unravel what was promised them.
Restless heads are left counting sheep;
Restless heads are left to breathe not speak.
