I am prepared
I need you intensely
I'm falling, losing your altitude
I'm crying, insane and raving madly
But I live on in gratitude
How could I ever learn from these acts
How might I perceive a new ghost
My heart, wary of passion
Still avoids the facts
My mind needs those eyes
To look sighing into mine
Mysteries, black and gold
In the middle, reflecting my desire
And saying to me
I want your rope and line
To pull you out a little
To pull you out a little
To pull you, just a little
