And the plaster dented from your fistin the hall where you had your first kissreminds you that the memories will fade.

The Brilliant Dance

Please tell me you're just feeling tiredcause if it's more than that I feel that I might break

Again I Go Unnoticed

I'll be true, I'll be useful...I'll be cavalier...I'll be yours my dear.and I'll belong to you...if you'll just let me through.this is easy as lovers go,so don't complicate it by hesitating.and this is wonderful as loving goes,this is tailor-made, whats the sense in waiting?

As Lovers Go

Do you, do you like dreaming of thingsso impossible or only the practicalor ever the wild or waiting through all your bad bad daysjust to end them withsomeone you care aboutand do you like making outand long drives and brown eyesand guys that justdon't quite fit in

So Impossible

And breath, deeply from this envelope, it smells like you, and I, cant be, without that scent, its filling me, with all you mean to me

Living in Your Letter

Cause now that I can see you,I don't think you're worth a second glance.So much for all the promises you made, they served you welland now you're gone and they're wasted on me.So much for your endearing sense of charm, it served you welland now it's gone and you're wasted on me.

Rapid Hope Loss

How the girls could turn to ghosts before your eyesAnd the very dreams that led to them are keeping them from dyingAnd how the grace with which she walked into your lifeWill stay with you in your steps,And pace with you a whileSo long, so long.

So Long, So Long
