I'm standing at the kitchen sink The curtains are yellow and white The light is cast on my face As my eyes drag towards you And a laugh tumbles out It's without my blessing And your teeth show from ear to ear One tumble leads to another Like a lady gymnast And now we are tumbling together The slap of your hands They are greeting the kitchen table I'm doubled over with happiness And we just keep meeting Over and over again The linoleum is dented With a million footsteps Where we danced together Twirling like a ribbon girl Where I stirred the batter That made your burnt birthday cake And I'm barren, unable to conceive But, we are each others babies Our crib is each others arms You take me as I am Like the ugly wallpaper In the upstairs bathroom
