i saw a stranger on the road last wednesday
i thought it might be you
i was transported to an alien world
where i thought it might be
truly possible to be with you
and i admit it was a dream
the kind you have on waking feet
and if tonight that dream came true
i wouldn't want it to
i wouldn't want it to
i drove past that fire station where
we watched the christmas lights
i thought i saw the edges of the building burning
and it gave me quite the fright
and i admit it was a dream
the kind you have on waking feet
and if tonight that building burned
i think i'd want it to
i think i'd want it to
i think i'm ready to

i just walked into my
studio apartment and i
threw my bag down on the floor
and turned on the shower water
and cried
and cried
and cried
when i was young i was sorta strange
i'd whistle to the cardinals
and listen for my name
i thought i'd found spirits more like mine
i thought that i could take to sky
now i'm tired and my back hurts darling
i wish that i could say how i'm feeling
i wish that i could tell you what i think
i wish that i could run away
i wish that i ask you to stay
(will you stay?)
for the last few years, i've mostly got around
i've mostly kept my guard up
and no one's tried to tear it down
for the past few years, i've mostly stayed inside
i've mostly worked the night shift
and said i didn't have the time
now i'm tired and my back hurts darling
i wish that i could say how i'm feeling
i wish that i could tell you what i think
i wish that i could run away
i wish that i ask you to stay
(what do you say?)
i just walked into my
studio apartment and i
threw my bag down on the floor
and turned on the shower water
and cried

melbourne street

the first time i found myself on melbourne street
i was distracted by the moon
i had forgotten to
take
my
bike
lights
and she was out in full
and she was bright above me
and i was pushing slowly
and she was pulsing gently
venus made a line with mars
venus made a line with mars
once when i was on melbourne street
it started to trickle down
just like the nectar from a peach
on asphalt numbers painted
running
jumping
breathing slow
i felt the moon begin to rise
and she was bright above me
and i was pushing slowly
and she was pulsing gently
venus made a line with mars
venus made a line with mars
(figuring it out)
i find myself on mebourne street more than i'd like to admit
to feel her heat
and see her face
and when i think of her i'm back on melbourne street
and singing
(epiphany)
