There are so many
lovers walking
the streets
arms over waists and
legs all in sync
where she's holding her books
and he's touching her hair
and the way that their eyes
glow;
they're so unaware
there are so many love-
songs
that live with the sea
they're pushing
they're pulling
they're singing to me
and so many lovers
here,
defying the blues
I'd have a lover
if I only loved
you.
