Pre-Dawn Imagination

When once we lived the juicy life

the summer baked

the autumn fades

you pirate you

to steal away with me

I remember well

you're drunk again

sweet heart you'll say

careful there, wipe off your sleeve

don't go searching very hard

for your other half in me

I recall your first kisses



hiding in the closet from your mrs.

the stern old sage and sensible

is what you see by day

the darkness made you cautious too

but I stopped by anyway

now you're getting hazy

falling far into a film

I guess I'd better move along

leave you to your private realm

I recall your first kisses

predawn imagination

is all that this is
