Charles
Tunes jingle and play,
my insides screech,
i need another day,
between home and missing you,
help me to say,
what i need to do,
my tear streaked disgrace,
lemon blue by the sea,
shows what a waste,
how to kill the truth,
by my own conceit,
a conscience to rue,
maybe others are late,
eager to squeeze,
memories from a lovers face,
they echo my distaste,
a coward's retreat,
no hope or shape,
but if there's a way,
i'll go and smile easy,
knowing what to say,
when i'm released.
solace every day,
you'll soon feel,
you are never alone,
cafe's swell with rain,
best not to moan,
keep hold of your creed,
don't let panic reign,
like a hurricane zone,
try to circle the domes,
we are leaving Salerno,
you have got my tone
have i got your number,
do you limit,
that cliff edge wonder,
a high heeled slumber,
stones flowers pieces
knowing not enough to see,
would you let her tumble,
tired of this campaign,
breath like fish glue,
especially on parade,
go easy on the truth.
across this shining bite,
that gives no easy news,
against the water's might,
the Americas of circue.
by mountains and ruins,
lovers only hesitate
she never left a family’s gate,
but came here to sing,
a woman who knows she's great,
that beckons any time,
next to me like a bride,
around a constant why,
the land within our sight,
an old man and his wife,
a voyage for the rate,
set your almond eyes
birds sing out of tune
drain summer into June
sweep up with the moon
not present castigate,
hope on a midnight wire,
we are not alone
in this lasting light,
home provides no clue,
God knows of your plight,
don't try to collude,
say your cards are marked,
you're never that far,
to stay where you are,
in a warm hazy fog,
and a veil across your face
don't send me to Mars,
from where you perorate.
