Sweet sixteen, three times over
Finders keepers, lover come home
Made a resolution to drop the revolution
Spinning wheels gotta get me there on time.
Picture album, artificial mayhem.
Took me such a long time to get onto this.
Heart in high heaven, babes in the oven
Aint no way you can keep me away.
Whos a believer? Whos a schoolteacher?
Who hides his gin in the garden shed?
Whos got three children? Whos had four husbands?
Lord, I cant take this lying down.
Little Italy sounds so sweet to me.
The West Village turns me on like no-one before.
A wharf on the East River, a trip to Long Island.
So whats with the sunny, shark-ridden shore?
Lover, Im laughter; lover, Im pain
Let me see you again in the light of my mind
I know that I hurt you. Didnt mean to leave you.
I think of that day over and over again.
Just one last snowfall, just one more night out
One on me, one on you and one for the road.
Tell me I need them, dying to see them.
Sweet as sixteen coming home again.

This is enchanting, Elena. So many thoughts, memories and images were construed in this that I must read it over again.
A lovely write.
Well done. |
