I've been doing a lot of thinking,
and the thing is,
it shouldn't have worked.
Hail Mary kiss at the end
of a night gone suddenly sidewise.
Neither dressed
for the cool air. I've been doing
a lot of thinking, and the thing is,
She said we have nothing
in common. But we warmed.
Then the the fear of birds.
And scared of spiders in the bathtub.
All legs but no, kill it, kill it.
You were moving away, didn't know when
to tell you. Pushover, easily budged
out of bed but how do I keep her
big blue eyes, disappointed. Smile,
dimples and it didn't take, she didn't
take the job. I've been doing
a lot of thinking, and the thing is,
she didn't take the bait but
maybe she'll hold that against me.
January jeremiad and a bad memory
cocktail. Puppy love. Buzzing anger,
No one is immune.
Two sole survivors and the jury
is out. Stay-back standoff, new bombs
to disarm. I'll tell her about it at
Waffle House. I've been doing
a lot of thinking, and the thing is,
she ran away at the
concert overseas. She expected me
to follow. A long walk back.
I've been doing
a lot of thinking,
and the thing is, you stayed, I'm staying.
I'm not going anywhere. I love you.
