Lovers Stay Right for Each Other

Pink in the nose as the shophouses close
Watching each other's faces intently
Try to comply when you confirm the signs I've been taking note
I take it badly
So then I don't know
Now what, these new parts that I've grown?
And no home; if I'm smart, I'll play hard, and stay strong

But flowers start falling
And good things come calling
And up to a point I can't hide
That I'm dancing to pieces with all my diseases
At the back of the party, confusing myself all night

In all my worst dreams asking, "what do you mean?"
All the time because it eludes me
Down the line when I'm changing my mind about talking
I can't even talk honestly
Spit and sputter
Just to discover that this time I did get it right
But I'm still in pieces, uncured diseases
Pulling me back to habits that don't seem to die

They don't seem to die

Bluer than sky
Two steps in time
Lovers stay right for each other
True words like light
Tears in my eyes
If only I wasn't older
