The Words

Oh

Do you remember

All the seconds

You are awake

Yes

We take a lantern

And we go back

To your place

Oh

I won't abandon

My foolish notion

It's too much fun

Though

You say it's all right

You do not ask me what I've done



Are we

To make an effort

How might I weave it [???]

And count each one

I know

'Cos I can do it

And when I've done it

I will have won

Why

Can't I abandon

I need a random [???]

The wrong idea

I need

To make an edit

I need to change how I appear



I don't doubt

I know you know me

It's about

The words that throw me



Stammer a line

Burn out of change

There's ink on your hands

And a tear on your page

Half-found intentions are met with a frown

The simplest plans can drag you down



I don't doubt

I know you know me

It's about

The words that throw me

I don't doubt

I know you know me

It's about

The words that throw me



Tell me

Why does it matter

If there's no pattern

To what we do

I know

That only logic

When there's magic

Between me and you

All

Of a sudden

Now you are hidden

From my view

How

Do I get you back

And make an old love

New



I don't doubt

I know you know me

It's about

The words that throw me

I don't doubt

I know you know me

It's about

The words that throw me
