She was coming down
I was coming on
A pool of broken dreams
Had spilled out on the floor
When restless souls lie still
What things do they dream?
Could careless action seem
To be a servant of the will?
Needle in the groove
Careful you can drown
She loosens out her hair
And lays her body down
No matter how I try
No matter where I go
The memory of that moment
Will not release its hold
In empty rooms on late nights
By windows lit with moonlight
I wonder does she wait for my soul
And if I ever had control
Did I ever have control?
I dreamt of her transgression
And drifted on and on
Awaking aeons later
To find her spirit gone
No rain no black umbrellas
No long black limousine
The sun beat down so harshly
On that lonely little scene
No matter how I try
No matter where I go
The memory of that moment
Will not release its hold
In empty rooms on late nights
By windows lit with moonlight
I wonder does she wait for my soul
And if I ever had control
