The rain dances at the bus stop
Someone’s holding you
Pretending not to see me
Rooted to the spot
A ring sparkles on your finger
With that tiny stone
You’re selling your whole future, and it makes you sad
My heart is a shattered marble
When I look at it
You’re reflected upside down
Stay with me
The glass fragments of my boyhood days
Stick into my heart
I kick an empty can on the footpath
And turn my back on you in the window of the bus
We kissed in our seats at the movie theatre
In a world of our own
Whispering until our lips were swollen
Your silky hair
A cologne I hadn’t smelled before
I had a premonition that you’d dump me
On this uptown street
Your habit of blinking when you lied
Told me that our love was drifting far apart
Stay with me
All I have left my glass boyhood days
Are memories
It’s the pain that makes them sparkle
The days of my youth play out, shining
My heart is a shattered marble
When I look at it
You’re reflected upside down
Stay with me
All I have left my glass boyhood days
Are memories
It’s the pain that makes them sparkle
The days of my youth play out, shining
Stay with me
The glass fragments of my boyhood days
Stick into my heart
When something ends, something begins
The clouds part and light shines on me
You’re the only person I loved |
