Firecracker

A is for apple, B is for blind
I jumped so fast I left the ground behind
You set your sights homeward
And you are more than wise
It’s late night heading into morning
You can get used to almost anything
Deep sea eyes, porcelain skin
Love’s sweet nests and their boxing rings
It’s late night heading into morning
Firecracker, firecracker
Sparkling in the sky
To those of us who saw
Looked like the fire should die
Knowledge pulls the reigns against
The bliss that I once knew
When you set your sights on me
And the firecrackers flew
Ocean of friendship, diamonds far and deep
We still talk of the future
Remembering soft sleep
A is for apple, apple of my eye
It’s late night heading into morning
Late night heading into morning…
