Night Music Lyrics

Autumns Night Music

Stay
Away
From words you can’t explain
Remember
Your reckless father
Alone by
The southern waters
Two tongues tied
Two distant skies
Flecked with white

Last
I heard
Two months he’d been in bed
Beyond the
Brittle urban
Ear; feeds
A balmy stifled
Air; bleeds
A radio
Humming fuzz

Girl, you gave me your hand
I know you never had
Someone to love you as I have

When he sets sail
From Port Cheniere
To endless deeps
The scuttle creeps

A nameless song
Of Pontellier
Upon his lips
