I look through a
Stained glass window
From inside
A sinking cathedral
I could not
Distinguish sky
From sea
So I climbed a
Stony steeple
'Til the water
Climbed up to my leg
And I had to
Grab on to
A floating pew
And call out to You
I look through a
High-rise window
From inside
Your Brooklyn bedroom
We lay there
'Til we could not
Distinguish music of the crickets
From the birds
So I climbed
Your iron fire
Escape until the
Sunlight filled my eyes
And I jumped on
To the subway
Platform
To forget You
