lyrics

VENICE

Memory paints us together on a bench
Lamplight, sipping wine, touching hands
Vienna’s still a day away
But in Venice we’re acrylic confluence
A vacation from a vacation
I’m near the end
To go with you I’m a changed man
To stay here by the water I’m lost again

So I wait on over by the plane
Picturing all the ways
You might bump into me
Out here all alone and runway pacing
I want to be allowed to wait for you
Not to keep you just inside a song line
Where I could stay intimate and shaping

The mornings are so strange
Waking up alone
It’s making me slow with my days
I tell myself the distance is just fine

I’m on the plane
Drifting I play with your voice
Hope is pushing these moments into days
Soon you’ll call just to say
Hey, let’s you and me go for a night drive
We’ll work our ways back into each other
If we slip a bit that’s okay
In good time we’ll recover

The mornings are so strange
Waking up alone
It’s making me slow with my days
I tell myself the distance is just fine

Do you ever think you see me
Asleep on my side of the bed
Reach out and finger-trace
The old contours of my head

So forget me, go on please
Forget me, make it easy

I get there step inside
So I guess you really didn’t stop me
I’m away, in a way always packing
Settle in a bit already letters written “Old friend, I’m in the middle of new. Head still spinning, sky still blue, I’m okay. Cat to calm, neighbors we say a word or two in passing. I miss all of you, my old jigsaw view of you.”

Chorus

So forget me, go on please, forget me
Make it easy, make it easy
Oh in Venice
It’s 4 AM in Venice
I’m alive in Venice
Stagger away from Venice
I’ll make it back someday
