Wristwatch

Three, four

With my beanie pulled down over your eyes, hunched in sleep
And my coat wrapped around you two times, I watch you breathe
I put on my wristwatch, set the time to 5:30 A.M
Throw my phone in the fire, then leave before I change my mind again

I float up to her and say, “What are you doing at a place like this?”
She says, “You can be the astronaut man, I'll be the hypnotist”
Your mouth is working swiftly, it's just a little nimbler than your mind
But I'm leaning and I'm woozy

Walking through the blue dawn with waves of you sailing through my blood
Keep the fire burning, I am coming down to meet you in the flood
