(Carl L. Marsh)

a love-light shallow glow

stop and stare    the human rodeo

effervescent so sublime  in time

pull up our roots together

beneath the brittle stars

you and me    the light

  from a neon bar

focus the microscope there's hope

but it could all come down tomorrow

and if it does come

and if it does come

where will you be?

will you be with me?

where's the evidence-

  circumstantial

been through it time and time again

i don't wanna be on a corner

hanging out

  with all god's lonely men

why keep it all uptight?

why keep it deep inside?

maybe you and me share

  a chemistry

let's go see Mr. Hyde

let's go see Mr. Hyde

downstream white-water ride

deep and low  the current

  of our pride

break-neck high-speed

  what we need

to both cut loose together

and you should know

and you should know

i want you here with me

first thing i see

getting heavily elemental

recycled i'll come 'round again

immobility begs a question:

does gravity mean to be my friend?

is there an end in sight

beyond our time and tide

maybe you and me

  could solve a mystery

let's go see Mr. Hyde

let's go see Mr. Hyde

and if it does come

and if it does come

where will you be?

will you be with me?

for the last time

for the last time

I want you every day

no more to say
