Eugene |
| Light struck from the lemon tree |
| What if I’d never seen hysterical light from Eugene? |
| Lemon yogurt |
| Remember I pulled at your shirt |
| I dropped the ashtray on the floor |
| I just wanted to be near you |
| Emerald Park, wonders never cease |
| The man who taught me to swim |
| He couldn’t quite say my first name |
| Like a Father, he led community water on my head |
| And he called me «Subaru» |
| And now, I want to be near you |
| Since I was old enough to speak |
| I’ve said it with alarm |
| Some part of me was lost in your sleeve |
| Where you hid your cigarettes |
| No, I’ll never forget |
| I just want to be near you |
| Still, I pray to what I cannot see |
| In the sprinkler, I mark |
| The evidence known from the start |
| From the bed near your death |
| And all the machines that made a mess |
| Far away, the falcon flew |
| Now I want to be near you |
| What’s left is only bittersweet |
| For the rest of my life |
| Admitting the best is behind me |
| Now I’m drunk and afraid |
| Wishing the world would go away |
| What’s the point of singing songs |
| If they’ll never even hear you? |
