Well I'm sorry buddy I'll be around more
Stay a while count the tiles on your bathroom floor
And do what I can to be welcome and witty
I know lately I can seem like a closed hand
I get tired knees and pleasantries can seem so bland
Hello is cloying when you're seeking pity
Black out the window
Salt in the garden
Bold as a high pile
Soft as a pardon
I think you're wrong man
No need to harden
For there's a tulip
Out in the yard a -
Flat white sheet on my floor bed
I am dreaming of you
Porch is sallow and you're lit like a bad dream
Walking barefoot on the gravel just to try and
Glean some knowledge or toughness
The world is still pretty
But you fit in it like a man in a boys suit
Swelling like a summer door or a spoiling fruit
Intended for tenderness trying to be gritty
Black out the window
Salt in the garden
Bold as a high pile
Soft as a pardon
I think you're wrong man
No need to harden
For there's a tulip
Out in the yard a -
Flat white sheet on my floor bed
I am dreaming of you
Blacktop blessed by a white streak
I am dreaming of you
