That I forgot to close the blind again
The kiss that you would give me even though I was sleeping
Here comes that feeling that I'd forgotten
And the sound of water splashing all over the bathroom
Especially like now when I need someone to hold me
But there are some things that can never be forgiven
Funny, I'd never noticed
Guess it's tea and toast for breakfast again
Just listening to records and watching the sun falling
Telephone's ringing, but I don't answer it
She's got a black eye this morning, Jen' how'd ya get it?
Maybe tonight it's a movie
Yeah, sure I'll admit there are times when I miss you
Black and white with a strong female lead
'Cause everybody knows, good news always sleeps till noon
And this spell won't be broken
Then I remember so I reach for something to smoke
Than go through all that shit again
Guess I'll go to the corner, get breakfast from Jenny
By the sound of keys scraping in the lock
How strange these streets feel when you're alone on them
And anyways I'd rather listen to Coltrane
A bag of popcorn all to myself
Thinking of things that don't have to add up to something
But I kind of like the feel of this extra few feet in my bed
And if I don't like it, no debate, I'll leave
No milk, oh, God, how I hate that
Oh, that's right, I forgot, it was me
So I lower my head, make a beeline for home, seething inside
Maybe I'll add a little TV too
The sound the streetcars make as they pass my window
She says, "Last night, Bobby got a little bit out of hand"
I sure do miss the smell of black coffee in the morning
Something about an afternoon spent doing nothing
Guess you forgot to close the blind last night
Which reminds me
Lunchtime, I start to dial your number
With plenty of room for elbows and knees
Each pair of eyes just filled with suggestion
