May
In the midnight hour, I'll lay with you
I'll be gentle, I'll be deep and I'll be true
I'll worship your skin and make love to your dreams
I'll give you everything womanly possible within me
and then I'll kiss your eyes as you fall asleep
I'll change my inhales and exhales to match your speed
and I may fall in love with your troubled waters
I'll let them swim in my soul, there they can find a bridge to stay under, to hide
safe they'll be from the world outside

but I may fall as time goes on
I may act like a child from dusk to dawn
I may even freeze, turn from water to ice queen
I may act like a fool, I may even fall to my knees
I sometimes don't know what it is to believe
the more you push I may pull away
the more you push I may pull away
I may pull away
I may pull


you see the reason I am this very way
is because a girl was lost before I came
nineteen years old caught in the burn of a lying loves flame
and all the light that I could have had was buried with her
and maybe for all her pain Ive always washed myself with rain
Storms seem to find me but I can never find her
I can never find her...

So I may break as time goes on
I  may say all the wrong words from dusk to dawn
I may even destroy you, make you feel blue but it wont be because I mean to
I may even act like a fool, I may even fall to my knees
I don't always know what to believe
the more you push I may pull away
the more you push I may pull away
I may pull

I had to take it on, her loss, her last cold blooded day
I was just a kid, caught in the wreckage of May
My family never was whole again
and all the love that I could have known was buried with them
maybe for all their pain, I've always washed myself with rain
Tragedy seems to find me, but I can never find them
I can never find them

So take it easy on me
I don't always know what it is to believe
the more you push I may pull
I may pull
the more you see, I might mess it up, I may run
I may make you regret being under my thumb
May 12ths for me ain't no fun

The more you push
I may pull
Baby I may pull
i may pull
(away from you)
pull pull pull
May broke my heart in 1992 before I even knew
Sometimes I may not know how to love you
I may pull
I may stay
I may be everything in Micheles place
but I will not take back
her last day in May
