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
