Narcissus on Fifth
I see you standing
On the storefront avenue
It’s got me asking
How can I get to you?
And the answer
Was the question back anew
To you I answered
Amazed you feel the same way too
With the flair I’ve always needed, got a stare that ain’t receding
But every move I make, you go to turn and disappear
I wanna take you with me, get you up out of this store
But you ain’t going nowhere, trapped in glass forevermore
I see you’ve turned blue
Well I’ve been feeling beat down too
What brings me peace now
Is the sight of you renewed
And I just wanna kiss you
Lean right in and plant a smooch
The day I tried I missed you
And through the glass I fell right through
With the flare I’d always needed, had a stare that turned quite fleeting
But every step away, just made you harder to see clear
I tried to take you with me, get you up out of this store
But there I lost a love, to shards of glass forevermore
