I’ve been playing hopscotch on the cobblestones at night
Charlie, it’s been ages since you moved to Avondale
I’ve been on the pavement, waiting for my life
waiting for the sun to rise and playing hopscotch
with a marble made of rainclouds - things you never said-
Charlie, when I flirt with the horizon it’s turning red.
My heart is a pump for my blood, nothing more
When I talk about love I don’t need a bloody metaphor!
Charlie, I’ve been reading, I’ve been living, I’ve been fine
making friends with emptiness and playing top-notch hopscotch
Sometimes, on a Sunday, I have my ducks in line
practicing the noble art of playing hopscotch
with a marble made of rainclouds - things you never said-
Charlie, when I flirt with the horizon it’s turning red.
My heart is a pump for my blood, nothing more
When I talk about love I don’t need a bloody metaphor!
It’s easy to believe in love
if love is what you do…
Discipline! Concentration! Patience! An absolute interest!
The ability to be awake! A little respect! And loads of activity.
Again:
Discipline! Concentration! Patience! An absolute interest!
The ability to be awake! A little respect! And loads of activity.
It’s easy to believe in love
if love is what you do…
