lyrics

Sitting solitaire on Tolstoy afternoons
watching as that two face moon
tries tricking me
through rustling leaves
into shepherd sleep

With all her science
and her romance
and mythologies
she’s trying to cast her spell on me
my soul released to velvet glow
Flow through lunar bliss
to stranger’s kiss
on the holy wings of Artemis

Alone beneath the gingham swirl
of gorgeous nights
I lie awake and wonder
oh how many lonely nights
can I afford myself
looking in the eyes of no one else
Chastised by the church bell chimes
beat down by the hands of time
wake up on the floor and find
I can’t recall her name or my state of mind
Untold truths and misspent trust
I don’t miss you, I miss the both us
I don't just miss you, I miss both of us

Tripping down the jigsaw jazz
of city streets
morning sunlight through the trees
wraps the day in cellophane
swirling all around me in off key harmony
voices carry on the breeze
on my odyssey for amnesty
On my lonely search for Artemis
