I was a bird with flu
I saw you
You hovered in the atmosphere
I was nearly there in the air

When the bottom fell out
I drifted south
And that sweet swet smile on your mouth

Memories don't haunt
Memories pierce me fiercely
We live inside of us
We live inside of you

My feelings come and go
The blues come and go
A bird and a wasp stopped at my windowsill last night
I could not put up a fight
against the wasp
And the bottom dropped

As I sunk in to my computer chair
I was leaning over standing writing it there
And you bent down to tie my shoe
No that never happened but the audience attention grew

You're a big girl now to borrow another bob dylan song
and you said so long, I said nothing
Nothing means nothing, and freedom is just another name
I want you the same

Where we came
from
your smile not frown
And my tobacco brown
Happy union
Union station Chicago
Or Terrapin
Won't you let me in
again
And I will tie your shoes low
