On the Drive Home

There's an echo in my body
Echoes slide down the roof
You looked like heaven in bloom
I might now look deep in those eyes
Whose kindness moves my Texas to Oklahoma
Drops of light on the bed
Rolling off into a puddle on the floor
You unbuttoned your life and let me go
My eyes are as brown as blueberries, love
Must put a mountain outside every window
I was crying my eyes out
Everything I drank turned to cherry cola tears, iced tea tears
I want to grab your words and fill them with coffee
There we lie like monkeys in our beds
Burying each frown that gets born
I'll climb up under your nightgown
We'll try to tickle a laugh out of the mattress
I'll use your boobs for a pillow
