LONG FOR YOU AGAIN

​

Lately when I awake I find
The heat is hard to take at night
And when I stand up naked I feel better

Stretch out on the floor
And by the light behind the door
I strain my eyes to read some more of your letter

Close the door
Back to bed
I’m better off there than in my head
Come the morning
When I awake
She’ll be gone and I can long for you again

Ana was a beauty queen
Shelly is the best I’ve been with
Ella is a dancer
This Molly is amazing
My friends have gone
I live alone
I will not just swim in my phone
Sputtering and wondering where you end and I begin

Open the door
Let them in
They don't seem to mind the kind of shape I'm in
Come the morning when I awake
They'll be gone and I can long for you again

Time is wasting
Tie me up and let me go
Take me off to places that I’ve never been before
Old Morocco, Acapulco Bay
Take me out on tour where it all feels the same
Open the door
But don’t come in
You might not like to see the kind of shape I’m in
Come the morning when I wake
You’ll be gone and I can long for you again
You'll be gone and I can long for you again
