find my name

Wednesday, November 9th, 2011

Streamers and balloons and little white flowers
Haunt the memories.
How I could make you laugh and I could make you smile
And inside be dying?

Girls running to and from the truth
and the days to come.
I learned my part well.
Then I grew up and I moved and
I met some people who asked me who I was.

And I couldn’t find my name.
I’d lost it somewhere between 10 and 23.
I need to find my name,
Though I know it’s here somewhere.

Pickles and pizza and manipulation
Oh, some things are hard to lose.
Habits are hard and habits are
A source of comfort when you’re lonely and confused.

But I’ve got to go, I’ve got to run.
I’m heading for the sun and
He will call me near

When I find my name
I’d lost it somewhere between and 10 and 23
I need to find my name
Though I know it’s here somewhere.

Aunt Jennie just turned 84,
She loves her life so much more
Than when she was 25.
She walks her dog and laughs a lot
And encouraged me to take a shot and see
And see,

And to find my name
I’d lost it somewhere between and 10 and 23
I need to find my name
Though I know it’s here somewhere.
I know it’s here somewhere

alright

Dark clouds are following me.
The world is a stranger today.

This is me without you.
I could use you by my side.
Tell me things about you.
Tell me that you’ll love me tonight.

I can spend the day with you
And you can make me feel it’s alright.
It’s alright.
You can kiss my blues away.
I’ll tell you where it hurts
And you can say it’s alright.

You’re pills and posy to me.
I need to have you every day.
Oh, can you be for sale?
Can I put you in a box
And take you everywhere?
Just in case I’m needing some hope.

I can spend the day with you
And you can make me feel it’s alright.
It’s alright.
You can kiss my blues away.
I’ll tell you where it hurts
And you can say it’s alright.

You can make a smile from a frown.
You can turn that thing upside down.
Don’t you know what your presence
Does to me?

I can spend the day with you
And you can make me feel it’s alright.
It’s alright.
You can kiss my blues away.
I’ll tell you where it hurts
And you can say it’s alright.

I can spend the day with you
And you can tell me it’s alright.
You can kiss my blues away
It’s alright.

You’re pills and posy to me.
