Lyrics:

You wake up late you feel your heart begin to work
and now you’re all dressed up of course
and hailing cabs out of your door

on 14th street I feel my head between my knees
and orange swimming through the trees
and orange swimming through the trees

where could I go what could I do put in the state
my lips and eyes give me away
and now there’s nothing I can say no

I’m pulled away I see another of myself
who’s found true love and happiness
to sit and smoke there on the chair for

two boys: one to kiss your neck and one to bring you breakfast, get you out of bed when
you’re sore from the night before from knocking at my door your head against the floor boards
two boys: one to love you sweetly one does so discreetly never will he meet me but
I’m sure that you'll catch your breath you’ll sleep into the day to wake up with sunlight across your room

before I leave I want to try to go back in time
to just that moment in my life where I should have spoke up but I lied

as I sat there with my jaw open and I smiled
he pulled his sweater off and tried to explain he’d all but given up on love

I’m pulled away I see another of myself who’s found true love and happiness
To sit and joke there on the chair

beside the bed I read this past week’s New Yorker
and I watch him paint Antarctica and watch him paint Antarctica

two boys: one to kiss your neck and one to bring you breakfast, get you out of bed when
you’re sore from the night before from knocking on my door your head against the floor boards
two boys one to love you sweetly one does so discreetly never will he meet me
but i''m sure that you'll catch your breath you’ll sleep into the day to wake up with sunlight across your room

telling me something or nothing
never the one thing I wanna hear
telling me something or nothing
never the one thing I wanna hear
