I’d rather be with you
Wondering through vacant rooms
Looking at old photographs
Of how it used to be
When we loved with such abandon
All you did was look at me
Just a gentle flick, and like hot wax
I melted, flowing everywhere
I’d rather be with you
In the dark silence of the night
Where we fumbled and stumbled
Over each other’s words
Eventually tossing them out
With the past hurt and pain
Their resurrection would bring
No more tears, all we did was cuddle.
I’d rather be with you
Knowing where we both had been
Then turning down roads untrammelled
Where surprise is an aphrodisiac
Harmonising signs of the zodiac
Connecting our separate worlds
Like the first man on the moon
Anticipating fresh discovery anew
I’d rather be with you.
