Warming

We touch on the sidewalk with a warming
Came to hear the words you're forming
In songs sung about the early morning
I lay wide awake, it's quiet
It seems as if no one and nothing is here
But I see a small shadow there in the mirror
.. and they just disappear
Say it was mine and I'd buy it

Turn to the lady in the lobby now
Smoke rises into that sky of dead trees
Your hand on my leg and you sit on my knee
I hold it this way to this day

In faces in facets and moments delayed
A head in your bed when you do hit the hay
I'll only crash here for the night
I have no place to stay
I came from the sky in my ray

Once diamond shone in the new parking lot
And the waking of ladies is gorgeous
They came on legs and the game that they brought
Ties up our hands but we ignore this

And a tug on my belt, whisper warming my ear
Have a ball with me now if the coast is all clear
I'll treat you so fine, but my freedom is so dear
So hard to walk with this lady

Morning time comes in the same way somehow
I feel a breath but it's not from my my mouth
This feeling has nothing to do with that time
And my britches stand in her corner

All of me rings with its
If we don't match, it's no matter to fear
I can sleepwalk out of this hole tonight
And be halfway to somewhere
As the day loses light

But difference gives us some dues to pay
So lay into them for a night and a day
And just like a wolf pack
Be soon on your way
A merry song inside your brains

I balled them out
'Good for you' they might say
But what of the small things
You've lost on your way
A CD, a sweatshirt
No, none of these names
I tell you, you lost
Something different that day
For where has she gone
She's at home where she stays
You no longer linger
Your name is a haze
No string of you vibrates
No song of you plays
You're out of her mind altogether
