Morning Theft

Morning Theft -Jeff Buckley
Time takes care of the wound so I can believe
You had so much to give you thought I couldnt see
Gifts for boot heels to crush promises deceived
I had to send it away to bring us back again
Our eyes and bodies brighten silent waters deep
Your precious daughter in the other room asleep
A kiss 'Goodnight'from every stranger that I meet
I had to send it away to bring us back again
Morning theft Unpretender left ungraceful
True Self is what brought you here to me
A place where we can accept this love
Friendship battered down by useless history
Unexamined failure
What am I still to you
Some thief who stole from you
Or some fool drama queen whose chances were few
That brings us to who we need
A place where we can save
A heart that beats as both siphon and reservoir
Youre a woman Im a calf
Youre a window Im a knife
We come together making chance into starlight
Meet me tomorrow night or any day you want
I have no right to wonder just how or when
You know the meaning fits Theres no relief in this
I miss my beautiful friend
I have to send it away to bring her back again
