Am I a prostitute
Or just wandering?
I'm flirting with possibility
Alone here just fluttering
A heart tangled in itself
I walk a few steps
See you again
I don't know if I want you
When you look at me I look away
When I look at you you're elsewhere
Why won't you look back?
To catch your attention
And hold it
It's a dream,
but your affection
It's a mirage
I've only seen your mouth once
But it's already been inside me
There's a magic with that and
There's a grand silence
Quiet
Two little universes
What's happening in yours?
I just need to know
There are tears in my eyes
Who tempts whom, do I tempt you?
There's an idea that pulls me down
That makes my eyelids grow heavy
I see us together
It makes this emptiness beautiful
But when I'm confronted I run
The police have found out
I'm a liar and I'm afraid
I still don't know and
There's a grand silence
Quiet
Two little universes
What's happening in yours?
I just need to know
And I may never know
When you chase me I run
But I know I need you
I need you like a child needs a name
I need you more

Am I a prostitute
or just wandering?
I'm flirting with possibility
Alone here just fluttering
