The Appointment
Lie with me my darling We'll talk of burning things The black urgency of the horses' eyes Melted in the street
The faint smell of hibiscus The cracks around your lips Slowly painted over In some morning before this
My love, I stood for days Trying to piece back into place All the words that fused together In the fluffy ashen pages
I surrendered every one of them And the case that couldn't come with them Just to be with you To be surrounded by your room With its outline of a fireplace Behind the chair, by the fern
Talk with me my darling Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com We'll lie of burning things The girl ablaze by the lake Though I could never have seen it
Your light breeze from the ceiling fan And traffic hum downstairs That thing you do with your left foot At the edge of the carpet squares
My love, I could never sleep Beneath the blankets nor the sheets Beyond the new meridian Scratched into my years
I surrendered every one of them The long long days, the months of green Just to be with you To be surrounded by your room With its sunlight on an absent mantle And the hour ending soon Our hour ending soon
