I'd sleep with you just to see you in the morning
or to hear you say at three a.m. with your eyes still closed
could you please go?
It's time to leave.
Just get out
'cos this bed ain't big enough for the two of us.
I'd forget you if I knew that I'd remember
but instead I keep you front and centre in my brain
'cos my idea of a friendship
can't be severed
from my ideas
and repetitions
between my ears
'cos this head ain't big enough for the two of us
Come over and we'll see
if conversation's free
or if we pay the price
for being too benign
or being too intimate
and not having the critical distance required.
I'd sleep with you just to see you with your clothes off
or to hear you say with your eyes half closed or open wide
would you please go?
It's time to leave.
Just get out.
I still love you
but I need to sleep
and this bed ain't big enough it ain't big enough.
