Was it you spinning vinyl In that 3rd floor apartment in New York Walls close, a small space You’re wrapped up in my sweater And singing songs I knew once To her and her angel face While leaves paint the pavement outside
Or was it you shouting In that rally on the streets of suburbia Last fall, the rain fell forever But you were brave wrapped in my sweater Chanting with the big crowd The air smelled like kettle corn And the people on the street sides cheered
It couldn’t have been you On the cold bathroom floor in Seattle Cold sweats, pupils dilated My sweater pulled over your sequin dress Vinyl record song Skipping Skipping Skipping in the background How you looked like disco ball Shattered on the floor that day
It may have been you buying coffee Across the taxi tracks in Brooklyn Americano, extra shot The city bubbling over like shaken soda Smiling like the day I gave you that sweater Broken as the disco ball on the floor Spinning the vinyl I bought you in suburbia
