Black & White

You had your head on your hand on my shoulder
Looking out longinginly into the lens
I had a guitar between my lap and my ring
Half smiling wonder if I was thinking
That I
Would keep this and find it
When I need you and you’re not there

Remember when I wore a hat and you had your hair all tangled up with chopsticks
Love was in the air and I knew we had found it
Times were tough but times were always tough for us
Now I can’t decide if I want you back because
You said you’d had enough
But I need you now and you’re not there

I turned on a little Jimi lit a match and slid down on the carpet
Closed my eyes and flashed back to how your arms fit around me
The sky was the same shade as today and the stereo was drowning
We unplugged the phone and laid alone in our familiar surroundings
It was the day you finally found me
I can still feel you’re heart pounding
And you’re not there

You had your head on your hand on my shoulder
Staring into the camera with black and white eyes
I still see their olive tint
and I envy the boy to your right
