10 & 2

I can't remember now what we said that night
Just the feeling that it could be alright
We haven't talked in a year or two
Thinking about what I couldn't do

You know when I'm alone
A simple search and I'm reading you
All the words and files, scrolling miles and miles
Years go by and I can feel you

There's a box of charms and a drawer of rolls
I know where they are, they're real
But 1 pm, I'll type cast iron pan
All the sudden then, I'm reading you

I know there's little mines
Hidden everywhеre out of place and time
Prеsent disappears and you're so near
On either side I can see you

Everybody says that it's been so long
And I guess it's true but I don't know how
Your words are always there and I shouldn't care
They surprise me, reminding me
What I can't say to you
10 & 2

I'm going to print them out, get them perfect bound
And on the 16th page I'll press a wildflower
Put it on the shelf, make a toast to health
And forget it's there for a while

You know about desire
It's a terrible thing but I rely on mine
L could forget, rather than regret
Better keep it there forever

Everybody says that it's been so long
And I guess it's true but I don't know how
Your words are always there and I shouldn't care
They surprise me, reminding me
What I can't say to you
