When you walk into my room all covered in red
Your eyes shoot me glances that hint to my bed
I put on a record, your favorite song
And we dance, and we dance to the fuse of this bomb
We walk and we sing about nothing at all
our minds are other places that no one can recall
the trees and the moonlight are our only company
but if you listen carefully you can hear the melody
and I know you won't be here in the morning when i wake
and i know you won't sleep here till the sunrise starts to breaks
and i know that you love me but the signs they point away
so i try and i try to live in yesterday
if i kiss you too softly when it rains
if i hold you too tightly through your games
and if i walk away slowly and you don't care if i'm gone
then i won't bother to care when you fall and done me wrong
what good is it to call you when i'm drunk and hardly there
you laugh and you amuse me like a play that can't be shared
but when you lie against me our bodies learned to rhyme
and i smile to the highest of the high

Entire album is excellent. As is the rest of the catalog. Go back to 1970...take the Dead and Floyd and roll them up. Yet completely different.
Just plain old GOOD MUSIC. Ed Fransko
