light breaks on the window
hardly enough to see
the moon hangs out my window
and it's closer than you are
and i'm tracing the steps i took
on the palm of my hand
because i would get there faster
if i could just reach it in time
a train has its rails
a plane has its sky
a car has its road
where does that put me
far away from home
it's getting too late to write
love letters to my parents
half-hearted pictures made in words
bending the light in place
it's growing to cold to cry
the cold wind dries my eyes
with time within my reach
i shy into the wall

we met at your door
with your heart on your sleeve
and i wanted to say good night
but you wouldn't let me leave
it was wet on the stairs
the dawn could wait
and the sun could stop
before i was let in
we held hands at the drive-in
and heard songs that we missed
you were scared when she died
and fine when we kissed
you left the phone off the hook
is it safe to say your heart's broken
or are you dreaming
about when we'd last spoken
