"Lovely Night"

 I wrote and recorded a new song today. It took five hours to get the right recording, but I've finally settled on the one you can find here. It's my music myspace. If you have the time, check it out, let me know what you think. I really enjoy it.
 I inserted a fragment of my poem 'With Uninteresting Women' in the recording. You can hear me recite some of it in the background.




Lovely Night

What's the difference? What's the harm?
Can I take you by the arm?
We're drowning in your living room
a little drunk, but so are you
If I don't fall asleep, I'll walk
They're playing music up the block
Where I'm sure they'll wait for me
I could use the company
See, there's this feeling in my bones
it loves me most when I'm alone
it's like a spring torn in my heel
now you can tell how grey I feel

Oh lovely night

Just like the flipping of a coin
if it turns up heads then you could join
I'd like to watch you watch your dance
(alternative ideas of chance)
'cause I can't dream the night away
because tomorrow's not today
I'd like to take them by surprise
it's time to give ourselves a try

Oh lovely night

So come away with me awhile
We'll shake our heads, we'll have to smile
I only want what I don't got
If you're the dream then I am not
