lyrics

Two Things

Here I am and I will stay
with two things
all that I can say

One of them’s rather indirect
and the other
no longer is your name

I speak and then the dogs rush in
they’re drunk again on the scent
of the love that I disgrace
I said so much but nothing
if not your name

When will the ship come back for me
as if I’ll ever even been near a sea
I’ll just make a sail with these leaves
that fill my mouth and fall out as I speak

I love it when the dogs rush in
drunk again and screaming
“love is only what you say it is”
I said so much but nothing
if not your name

These days it’s all mops and brooms
but no rooms to clean
What I mean I is if you speak to me
I’ll speak of you in the world
by your name
