Was the heat that melted to the seat
She stood out in the lawn
A cigarette hangs from her lips
As she pins clothes to the line
Hot devil heat
Firecracker town
Downtown
Not too hot for coffee
Or the wide open window
The waitress wears her same Sunday dress
That girl has got to let go
Sugar cookie skin
Making smiles at the manager
Even when everyone
In their right mind is looking
It's a street or two to the sea
A ritualistic walk of black frying pan
Asphalt
Barefoot and broken
I climb to the end of the jetty
As the sun starts to set
If you were here this is where I would take you
On the edge of the sea
Where no one is looking
I would try to kiss you
Or hold your hand
But I know you would just laugh and say
"You're such a silly boy"
So I know better
So the sun sets
The stars come out with the moon
So beautiful on the sea
God **** its so beautiful!
I just wish you could see
