Warmer - Beulah

hello ? fly 
when she starts to sway 
the floor is blacker than the sea 
she says oh well oh well you do just fine 
just spinning drifting trying to stay in time with me 
pretend those casts are rolling on your feet 


boys are staring and they wait for dances 
in lines as long as country miles 
good girls voices drew flock anestesia 
and the smiles can last for days and 


on and on 
when we go to sleep and wake to another brand new day 
she says oh well oh well you do just fine 
just dreaming wishing trying to close your eyes 
think of me 
pretend that we’re both older than we seem 


boys are staring and they wait for dances 
in lines as long as country miles 
good girls voices drew flock anestesia 
and the smiles can last for days and days 


lost cause kids are okay 
now they wouldn’t be long 
stare keep sweet and quiet sane 
some some look sane
