The people in the street had overtaken you

By the time you rounded second avenue.

So I walked away

All perfumed

Felt just the same

But brand new.

And anything you wrote I checked for codes and clues

The letters stopped unceremoniously in june.

So I changed my i's

And a's to yours

I'm just the same

But brand new.

And I do my best impression of weightlessness, now too

And I might be wrong, I might be wrong, I might be wrong

But honey I believed I could.

Float away

Dangling

I'm just the same

But brand new to you.
