Didja Feel It
summer’s lush and summer’s warm
some are safe and out of hands of harm
summer’s rich and summer’s blind
putting faith in colour the sober eye won’t find
didja feel it in the shimmering green
I was drunk of tongue and dazzled I was a poetry machine
didja feel it in the the melting sun
I was soft and off balance over someone
love’s a cliff and it’s a vertigo spin
it’ll drop you like a thought into a land of whispering wings
some fall like light some fall like dew
some fall like stone one’s love is not enough for two
didja…
I remember what my heart was singing of
how I longed to speak your name to the ones I love
I remember it felt so sudden true
how come I’ve forgotten how to talk to you
