A Boy and A Girl.All I wanted was for you to not be you, / and me to not be me, / and for us to be another pair.

AlreadyIf you're, so hell bent on convincing me / it's all in my own head, / then how come every time

Angels in the StationIn the busy station Men and Women, / sit motionless, like statues curled in on themselves, / their bodies bent and twisted in, on the long benches

Are Boys?*Are boys still mean, to girls they like?* / Or is that just a lie, that Mommy's and Daddy's tell, / when Tommy pulls your braid too hard, or Joey says you smell?

Asleep against you.I noticed today how tall you look when you stand at the cash register in the grocery store. I swear I wasn’t trying to, it's just that I looked up and there you were in your suit and tie and I was caught. / I’m so sorry that when you take your glasses off I picture you sleeping on the pillow beside me. / And I’m so sorry that sometimes when I can’t sleep, I wrap my arms around myself and put a pillow against my back. I put my hand across my bare skin, on my hip, and I pretend you’re there. I pretend we’re just sleeping, nothing else. There’s time for that too, but I can’t quite articulate that yet.

Cell PhoneSometimes I find myself wishing / my cell phone wasn't my alarm clock, / and that I didn't have a class

Champagne SupernovaEvery time that dam song / comes on, I'm back in the car / with you.

Courage (Of the Liquid Variety)I didn't like her as soon as I met her. / She'd known you an hour, and said your name wrong. / But she was pretty and little, and blonde.

Don't tell anyone this,but when you ask if I ever write about you... / I get this rush, and I think, / about how you would blush,
