lyrics

Saul looked straight at the wall,
Said, “I’m just not ready for love….
I’m just not ready for love.”

And I said, “Is that a man, woman or a rock?”
And he said it had the curvature of a rock,
But that a lack of light served to obscure the stone.

When we stepped out onto the street
It was night-time and we
Were enveloped by metropolitan energy;
As we made our way from his apartment to Dawn
He had a certain joie de vivre,
A nullifying quality

And the paling city was pretty much nebulous,
As was Saul in lights dodging that streetcar
As I rightly cursed the brevity of being free.

Eu lembro-me claramente:
Ele tinha um casaco de couro preto
E um boné.
Ele era o meu amigo mais próximo.
Compreendes?

Dawn would’ve seen it in me.
Our very own Aphrodite!
She’d say, “You look awfully flushed;
Now, come over here and let me brush you up….”

As I look back at that fleeting point in time
When I gauged time as a form of currency,
It strikes me that, for however long it took to travel,
I had given myself up for the sake of Dawn.
