Lost At Last

She drinks my tears

Through dead of night

Tickle tickle her finger tips

I hold my breath and I'm

Lost at last

In the daylight she waits for me

In the doorway on the step

I clamber down the cobbled street

And I follow her up the stairs

Through the window from where we lie

I look across a dirty sky

The silhouettes, the water tower

The blinking lights, and I think

Lost at last

It's the folly of a fool

To try and kiss it all away

The golden light on her breast

But I try anyway

Sometimes I think it's all too much

This existential crush

Then I look into her eyes

And I think, I'm lost at last

I tell her all my history

Fractured promises and broken past

She nods and smiles and looks away

It's all I need to be

Lost at last
