LOOM
you've always got those dark sunglasses
covering half your face
but if you promise to take them off
i promise i wont squander your gaze
i will be picturesque
i will be nice
i won't do anything
you can't tell your wife
i will think before i act
i will think twice
just let me see your eyes

each time we've spoken
we've put in a toekn and ridden the tilt-a-whirl
i was giggling and dizzy
flirting like a 12 year old girl
the carnival of you and me is comming to town
watch how we spin and spin and then fall down
now we jsut say hello
and head for firmmer ground

you are the one-way glass
that watches me
standing in line
at the bank
i always looked into your glasses
like a cat looks into a fish tank
but all i could ever see was
the specter of me reflected
i want a monument of friendship
that we never have erected
i want it to take up lots of room
i want it to loom

you've always got those dark sunglasses
between us when we talk
after the party is over
if you wanna take a walk
we could just look around
not do nothing wrong
just try to be at least as brave as our songs
i will bring my heart
i will bring my face
you jsut name the time and place
