Early to rise, early to bedThat moment I arisen I shaved my headDoing so that morning began with a grinI left behind my old feebled skinIt was middle of May, the seasons were bendingI in with the seasons could predict no endingLived in the moment, being as it wereThat moment surrendered and led me to herExchanging glances, our eyes by a threadI tucked her right over by a tilt in my headI followed her blind to an old record storeWhile one of her friends found a way through the doorIn the dark we played records with everyone highI held her hands when the police drove byShe asked me about home, if I missed it at allI thought mama, oh, mom I've been meaning to callThe band went home, I stayed behindI took the Muskegon ferry from the Milwaukee lineArrived at her door to clutch all her heartstringsWe're driving up North to forget everythingI followed her to beaches, we slept on the dunesLetras de cancionesI still see her eyes lit by fragments of moonsNot crescent nor full, inside of the stormShe'd dive and resurface each time changing formBut time kept insisting we both sink like rocksTime out of water resumed on the clocksShe slept while the second hand spun on the wallI thought mama, oh, mom I've been meaning to callI didn't want to lose her, I bought two tickets homeWe left Copper Harbor scared to be aloneStanding there watching our feet off the planeEach step she took further, I was less the sameI was running from whoever I was at the timeI went running right into the middle of a crimeI was calling in the quicksand just to get above the grimeJust to come up for some air, I was climbing to climbAnd I didn't mean to hurt you when I turned on a dimeAnd just within a day you were well on your wayAnd I went to the river where all sinners meetWatched the animals run from headlights in the streetI thought I'm like all the rest, I just wanna be impressedYou've gotta be above someone to watch 'em fallEmily, I've been meaningEmily, I've been meaningEmily, I've been meaning to call From Letras Mania
