I got so much this week, I really did
The overwhelming majority was women's underwear
So it's been a happy week
But what I really need right now
Is a shot of brandy so I know I'm alive
A game of cribbage, to make sure Other people are there
And a kiss goodnight, and the knowledge that it's not goodbye
but see you tomorrow
Is it really wrong to want to be with someone, and feel ok
Not think about tomorrow
Not think about yesterday
Maybe they'd be happier,
maybe I would too
but maybe it'd be alright
It's not so much the act as what's holding me back
A duty to follow the rules of engagement
of people and dating and other well defined aspects
Of contemporary living
I think it cheapens me
I know it isn't always story book
or A kiss siloghetted by the sunset
giving way to the credits
but I refuse to beleive that what they call reality
trumps what I feel in my gut
But I trust that they believe what they're saying
And They've been places I haven't
but I questioned them when they told me no
I did not go quietly
But when she told me no
When she told me it'd be too wierd for her
I didn't think for a minute
That's just the way it was
looking back on this
I see this blind loyalty
to a love that hasn't been returned in a long
long time
At least, not like it was
or at least not like I thought it was
but maybe it's my turn
to do what I want
To make myself happy
even if it'd be wierd for you
Maybe
Maybe
