Lovers and leaves

Streetlights go out Her hair shades of yellow to red again Piano notes bend in your eyes through the bar ’cross the street. Gentle, dark, drunk

Her smile wide as the stars above us Behind tires and wet pavements On a quiet street of lovers and leaves Rain swim on fur coats How im just floating above us In this buzz of love City lights carry me Unethered, pure Your gentle hands hold me above Carry me home Through lovers and leaves
