Upward Swing

What if she caught me on an upward swing?

How do I measure her effect on me?

What if I cycle back to crueler states

And wake to find I'm stuck on yesterday?

I'll try to put away my misspent fears

I know they're killing you

I know they just get in the way

I'll try to tranquilize and keep it real

I've got misgivings, but you're always asking me to stay

I spent the evening counting carefully

Trivial worries and I went to sleep

Oh, Hallelujah to her morning pose

What can there be in her that I can know?
