Fools of May

That night in bad light you looked stunning
limbo and a crooked line
your friends and my friends
are waiting on a ride to different places tonight

She said you really don't look your age, man
are you walking back alone
singing to the deep black sky
that left us wandering home
your hand in my coat, drift to Guthrie Ln
darling just close your eyes
let you hair fall dreaming dreaming

These poor young ones, you gotta love em
such poise and a need to try
we thought of ourselves above them
as noon light leaked into your high rise

Amy are you heading home
your father and your mother pray
everything you've never loved
a scripted coming of age
your hand on my throat
here's to the fleeting shame
"Darling dont cum inside
Just let me feel ok, ok?"

December, I surrender
we lost our self control
red mirrors, they can see it all
these nights we'll long remember
God bless the fools of may
those words that I never heard you, I never heard you say
I never heard you saaaaay
That's ok

December, I surrender
we lost our self control
red mirrors, they can see it all
these nights we'll all remember
God bless the fools of may
those words that you'll never hear, you'll never heard me say
you'll never hear me say again
