Lewis Deyerle

"You shield your eyes and fall asleep"

You shield your eyes and fall asleep
In the driveway next door.
The first and last of another week
In the sun on the floor.
It's been an awfully long time since morning
and I can't wait anymore.
You sent a message to me last night
With your hand in my hand
That I could finally be alright
If I just did what I planned.
In the dancehall you sent me a warning
Which I left in the sand.
Now my words might mean nothing to you
And I hope you don't think it's a hopeless demand.
