One Good Use for My Heart
You climb the stairs
I have to look up and down
You tie your shoes
I have to look down and up
Nearly ten years, feels like a day
Now today, my heart beat thumps
Your eyes like cows how now
You’re 32
I’m 36, what the hey?
You’re looking good
My hairline’s still in one place
or
You’re 34
I’m 38, what the fuck?
You’re looking good
I guess I’m not out of luck
And if you hold my hand,
I’ll keep up the pace
A Zimmer frame will not be needed
Don’t want to use my mind
to mentally undress you
Don’t want to use my mind
I want to use my mouth
The morning sun
shines in my heart off of you
Refracted light
makes raindrops dance in the dew
I’ll roll around
No clouds up there, sky is blue
I’m waking up each day in you
Don’t want to use my mind
to mentally undress you
Don’t want to use my mind
I want to use my heart
