Horses in the Room |
And who is this man standing at my door? |
Is he lying or is he true? |
Is this how I see you? |
Like a rolling pebble on the deepest ocean floor |
Life has rubbed me smooth |
But you cup me in your hands |
And you roll me in your pocket |
How many men, unhappy, crammed inside their skin |
Wordless to explain, stand at someone’s door? |
Am I too old for this? |
Is there kindness in his face? |
A good man or a weak man? |
There are horses in the room pulling me through fences |
I throw the window open |
And the light hits the pavement |
Come in, come in, whoever you are |
I will know you, if only from afar |
Once I saw a dry dock |
And the rustling hulks of ships and trawlers |
With a wind that could cut steel |
It was so cold |
And I don’t have to think that hard |
And it all comes flooding back |
There is so much that neither of us will ever know |
Come in, come in, whoever you are |
I will know you, if only from afar |
