I am a man
knowing what may be
of wandering the streets
in the cold December nights
after the snowfall and the caroling
what is it?
I thought to myself
as wine flowed into my brain
the hot wine that is the late night love
that's there in the corner
The grass
was cold
I knew
how it was
to do
as if already done

to you
as if someone
the sun rays
cast a watery image
of numb existence
it knocked me out
in the dead of night
that one a.m. hustle

and
her life
was
captivating
My street's
on the corner

I tried so hard
to warn her

oh
god she is there
with her short black dress
and her short blond hair
oh
how i yearn to tell her
tell her that i care
560
57
57
i feel my fingers
sift through her hair
but i must remind myself
that she is not there
59
59
darkness runs through my veins
i feel it run to my soul and back
but i am a good man
             a good man
             a good man
             a good man?
60
60
keeping myself from
loving you
is the hardest thing
i've ever done
60
60
kiss me
touch me
**** me
I'm yours

the snow
outside

the ice
outside

almost colder
than my heart
632
632
The attempt of knowing is more
              important than knowing at all.
67
67
i leave the lights on
and my mind unlocked
so you can come back
whenever you want
69
69
down
down deep into my heart
so i can show you that
you were there from the start
77
77
crystals in the sky
crystals in my eye
crystals that i cry
for you, my dear
