Party Of Two

Oh love, it must be time I said darling, little lover I believe that it is time To condense our little lives Into a metal box on wheels and drive Directly to the Bay With full grins on display Due to the fact That we may never see The south of California again Oh, but anxiety evolved Into perpetual uncertainty But only 'cause I let it Now I'm letting it fall off In the same fashion as i fell I step outside onto the street A cigarette, two puffs of ventolin Because some things, they do not go away Hey babe, the rain is coming down As i am soaking my paint-covered shoes Been eating backwards in the street And waiting patiently for these boots to dry My dear, I feel it's time To embrace my lack of masculinity and try harder to appear pretty Pure expression through androgyny I've never longed to be called handsome But you're so sweet Now i'll do just what I want Fun in my cigarette, vodka in my tea And you, the queen of me, on my arm Strolling up and down the hills once more All high and drunk on wine A wholesome party of two And when the sun returns Into the sea, and you to me Like dragonflies, we'll rhapsodize And scrutinize ironic things that've come to be Some supper from our favorite deli Return to warm, leafy sanctum Weary, but surrounded by love With spindly branches wide And me the tree And you the apple of my eye For this I'd die Shall we get high? Love, how could I begin to list the reasons why? There's no need- I just know you're the fairest
