Bike Dream

You wake up late, you feel your heart begin to work

And now you're all dressed up, of course

And hailing cabs out of your door

On 14th Street, I feel my head between my knees

And orange swimming through the trees

And orange swimming through the trees

Where could I go? What could I do?

Put in this state, my lips and eyes give me away

There's nothing I can say, no

I'm pulled away, I see another of myself

Who's found true love and happiness

To sit and smoke there on the chair for

Two boys, one to kiss your neck

And one to bring you breakfast

Get you out of bed when

You're sore from the night before

From knocking on my door

Head against the floor boards

Two boys, one to love you sweetly

One does so discreet

Never will he meet me, but

I'm sure that you'll catch your breath

You'll sleep into the day

Wake up with sunlight across your room

Before I leave, I want to try to go back in time

To just that moment in my life I should have spoke up but I lied

As I sat there with my jaw open and I smiled

He pulled his sweater off and tried to explain how but had given up on love

I'm pulled away, I see another of myself

Who's found true love and happiness

To sit and smoke there on the chair

Beside the bed, I read this past week's New Yorker

And I watch him paint Antarctica, and watch him paint Antarctica

Two boys, one to kiss your neck

And one to bring you breakfast

Get you out of bed when

You're sore from the night before

From knocking on my door

Head against the floor boards

Two boys, one to love you sweetly

One does so discreet

Never will he meet me, but

I'm sure that you'll catch your breath

You'll sleep into the day

Wake up with sunlight across your room

Telling me something or nothing

Never the one thing I wanna hear

Telling me something or nothing

Never the one thing I wanna hear

Telling me something, nothing

Never the one thing I wanna hear
