Real Cool

Baby, we came close again
Just a glimmer above the rest
There's still prose left, I've not said yet
I know you love it when I talk like that

You said I look real cool, real cool
I'm tar and 40 proof, just what you're into
The boys back home got a stronger jaw
But no bite back, like I do

9 to 10, you see right through
I'm pellucid to you

So don't go too far, heaven's sake
It's deja vu, but it could change

Walk on water on Lake Shore Drive
You said you've seen the waves this high
Lost our shoes, our way, our minds
Solemn and soaked on the south bound line

You said it feels real cool, real cool
Drunk on a bridge with you, we smoke until we're blue
The boys back home got a stronger jaw
But won't carry you, like I do

9 to 10, you see right through
I'm pellucid to you

So don't go too far, heaven's sake
It's deja vu, but it could change

I know you're thinking we've been up so high
It's bound to come low
Record of black-blue love, and it shows
I know, but it won't
I know you're thinking that you've seen it all
Well, maybe just close
There must be somewhere pretty that we don't know
You know, you never know

(9 to 10, you see right through)
(I'm pellucid to you)
