Watch how the bunnies with glazed-over eyes,
As dull as the glint in their smiles, and as stiff to surprise
Hop giddily for some sweet sunshine
Don’t call, don’t write
Watch how the only two I’ve always loved
Engaging the hard razor wind with no hat and no gloves
Retire to finger their prize
Some night, some sky
Just trying to find some place to go for the last time
Not even sure what was wrong with the last one
Here’s everything you need
But don’t try to rip it away from me, please
You can’t beat the thrill till your blood shakes it out
You can’t beat an earnest intent that goes out and around
It’s always been too late to change your ways now
Soft as your skin, even always awake
Not realizing the glamour of what it would take
To make your stand somewhere between, you might be me
Trying to find someplace to go for the last time
Not even sure what was wrong with the last one
Here’s everything you need
But don’t try to rip it away from me, please
They know they just can’t lie
Watch how we’re doing the best that we can
A fine explanation and comfort to many a man
But as long as I’m excusing my time
Don’t call, don’t write
