Glass of Water

Glass of water
Glass of water by my bed
And all this clutter
All this clutter in my head
It doesn’t matter
It doesn’t matter what you did
All this chatter
All this chatter’s all been said
And the madman perched outside my window
Sings so sweetly to the sea
Last night I slept in the center of the universe
With the ocean and rain all around me
I woke curled up and cranky
Like a newborn
All the books on
Battered bookshelves don’t know
They’re not waiting
They’re not saying I told you so
And my hands know
And my hands know you so well
And where they go
And where they go they won’t tell
And the madman perched outside my window
Sings so sweetly to the sea
Last night I slept in the center of the universe
With the ocean and rain all around me
I woke curled up and cranky
Like a newborn
Let the ocean rock you, rock you like a baby
Let the ocean rock you
Rock you like a baby
