Ah for All That See a Tenacity


It was thirty-three years ago when I kissed you
Thirty-three years today isn’t that such a silly
Coincidence? Jesus lived just as long as it took
Me to write these words holy smokes what a trip!
O I know our love was built to spill all over hell
I think I knew it then but hey I was just fifteen just
That side of innocence and you were so into
Lou Reed and Laurie Anderson remember how
We played their records in your bedroom? We
Got stoned and listened to their words and you
Said chill country boy you’ll be all right and I was
Breathing hard and wanted to get the hell out
Back then I carried a gideon bible in my pocket
I knew twelve dozen chosen verses to save what?
