Asphalt

Do you remember the asphalt
Where gray turned into white
We shared a sidewalk
Half of my life
Can you tell I've been waiting
Can you tell I've been waiting here all night
To tell you the same thing
I have a thousand times

Beneath the breathing
In plastic chairs
Something was breeding
In the damp stale air

I live on salt and sugar
Saccharine's between my bones
You know I'm no sharp shooter
And I always stumble home
I could swear every look was heaven sent
The heat of the macadam
Melting tar between the cracks
Observing every atom
But I could never take it back

Beneath the breathing
In plastic chairs
Something was breeding
In the damp stale air
I dream of Jeanie
With the light brown hair
Borne like a vapor
On the summer air
