we can touch
|
touch our girl cheeks
|
and we can hold hands
|
like paper dolls
|
we can try
|
try eachother on
|
in the privacy
|
within new york city's walls
|
we can kiss
|
kiss goodnight
|
and we can go home wondering
|
what would it be like if
|
if I did not have a boyfriend
|
we could spend
|
the whole night
|
|
I am waking up
|
in her bed
|
I sing 1st avenue
|
the open window said
|
always late to sleep
|
late to rise
|
lying here watching the day go by
|
in the living room
|
there are people on the carpet
|
having stupid conversations
|
just to hear themselves talk
|
and I am drifting through
|
I am heading for the kitchen
|
I am thinking of her fingers as I walk...
