I thought I felt your shape but I was wrong/ nearly all I felt was falsely strong/ I held on tight and closed my eyes/ it was dumb I had no sense of your size/
Well it was dumb/ to hold so tight/ o0oh/ but last night
on your birthday in the kitchen/my grip was loose my eyes were open/ I felt your shape and heard you breathing/ I felt the rise and the fall of your chest
I felt your fall/ your winter snow/ your gusty blow/ your lava flow/ I felt it all/ your starry night/ your lack of light/ with limp arms I can feel most of you
and I hung around your neck independently/ and the cause was overwhelmed/ by this new depth I don't think I ever felt
now I dont know/ my nights are cold/ I could have sworn/ I wasn't alone
I wasn't alone x 4
I felt your shape x 14
