John My Beloved |
| Are we to speak, first day of the week |
| Stumbling words at the bar |
| Beauty blue eyes, my order of fries |
| Long Island kindness and wine |
| Beloved of John, I get it all wrong |
| I read you for some kind of poem |
| Covered in lines, the fossils I find |
| Have they no life of their own? |
| So can we pretend, sweetly |
| Before the mystery ends? |
| I am a man with a heart that offends |
| With its lonely and greedy demands |
| There’s only a shadow of me; |
| in a matter of speaking, I’m dead |
| Such a waste, your beautiful face |
| Stumbling carpet arise |
| Go follow your gem, your white feathered friend |
| Icarus, point to the sun |
| If history speaks of two baby teeth |
| I’m painting the hills blue and red |
| They said beware, Lord, hear my prayer |
| I’ve wasted my throes on your head |
| So can we be friends, sweetly |
| Before the mystery ends? |
| I love you more than the world can contain |
| In its lonely and ramshackle head |
| There’s only a shadow of me; |
| in a matter of speaking, I’m dead |
| I’m holding my breath |
| My tongue on your chest |
| What can be said of my heart? |
| If history speaks, the kiss on my cheek |
| Where there remains but a mark |
| Beloved, my John, so I’ll carry on |
| Counting my cards down to one |
| And when I am dead, come visit my bed |
| My fossil is bright in the sun |
| So can we contend, peacefully |
| Before my history ends? |
| Jesus I need you, be near me, come shield me |
| From fossils that fall on my head |
| There’s only a shadow of me; |
| in a matter of speaking, I’m dead |
