Under You

Along the edges, colors blur it seems familiar
While you read your magazine
I was counting all the markers
And California seemed to draw you like a siren
From a postcard, in a letter
Or a frame of film meltingUnder you, I feel your breath move in, out slowly
Under you, let go completely feeling you take over me
Take over meA Hollywood flat where we'd laugh about our fortunes
Well we held jobs in this bar
Down at 3rd and San Vicente
And Ramen noodles at 4:30 in the morning
When we barely could survive
I was never more aliveUnder you, I feel your blood flowing out slowly
Under you, let go completely feeling you take over me
Take over meYou moved in slow degrees
A sudden memory
You're a Leonard Cohen song
But every now and then I'd swear
I see you standing on a sidewalk, in a restaurant
From a taxi passing byUnder you, I feel your breath move in, out slowly
Under you, let go completely feeling you take over me
Take over me
Take over me
Take over me
