"If You Want Me"
lyrics
Comfortable things
old friends
lapse of thought
intermittently drifting off
into something else
like bits of a house
that float by
broken and swept up
by a river
grown too fat and flooded
there's the old chair
that used to sit in our dining room
there's my favorite film
a piano leg
my old guitar
i dream dreams
of you waiting there
just out of reach
not sayng much
i wanted to hold your hand
but you kept walking away
someday i'll come back
and reach for your hand
and it will be real

late conversation
sidewalk
convenience store
prescription filled
long-term goals
financial plans
tax return
a better job
a better home

late conversation
sidewalk
convenience store
prescription filled
long-term goals
financial plans
tax return
a better job
a better home

comfortable things
old friends
lapse of thought
intermittently drifting off
into something else
like bits of a house
that float by
broken and swept up
by a river
