TEN MINUTES AWAY

if you were
just ten minutes
away
come by here
tonight
let’s get high
tonight

but i know
you’re miles away
across the country
out of the scene
so it ain’t
gonna happen
not tonight
not you n me

i can feel you
in my arms
i can reach you
like a veda
i can change you
like a super hero
w a magic
wand

if you were
just ten minutes
away
i’d hear you comin’
up the stairs
you’d be laughing
about how late it is
tonight

i can see you
taking my call
the one i did not make
i know you
in silence
w a trick
up yr sleeve

solo

ride your bike
across the silver moon
just like eliot
w ET
under a blanket
