I stumble through rain,
Lightning stretches through violent skies.
Am I on your mind?
My murky mind weighs enough to
Carry my empty stomach.

I eat fried eggs, and
Wonder what you’ll eat tonight.
Am I on your mind?
I dip toast into the yolk,
Imagine you next to me.

You waltz through bright sand,
Shining even brighter still.
Are you on my mind?
A blushing sun weaves cotton
Candy clouds across your sky.

You sip Sauvignon,
Watch Bee Movie with your friends.
Are you on my mind?
You brush your hair out before
Bed, feel my fingers slip through.

We’re two full worlds away, but
I would love to talk tonight.
