Somehow
in the silence...

I struggle with the button on my jeans. Jacket...

Just for this moment
i've found myself again...

As night spreads her skirts
and the snow flurries...

Stay with me
I grow softer at your touch...

And you wonder--who is
awake at this hour? people like me...

Driving down this road
Looking at the sky so blue, reminds me...

I cry myself to sleep at nights
pretending with the lights turned out...

I am soft and wide
like hips that have seen childbirth...

I love waking up in the morning with you
I'll kiss you while I do my makeup...

Take a cloth
and slide it across my skin...

I look into the sky
and watch the night-rain fall...
