Conversation

<br>He comes for conversation<br>I comfort him sometimes<br>Comfort and consultation<br>He knows that`s what he`ll find<br>I bring him grapes and cheeses<br>He brings me songs to play<br>He sees me when he pleases<br>I see him in cafes<br>And I only say, hello<br>And turn away before his lady knows<br>How much I want to see him<br>She removes him, like a ring<br>To wash her hands<br>She only brings him out to show her friends<br>I want to free him.<br>Secrets and sharing soda<br>That`s how our time began<br>Love is a story told to a friend<br>It`s second hand<br>But I`ll listen to his questions<br>I`ll give my answers when they`re found<br>He says she keeps him guessing<br>I know she keeps him down<br>She speaks in sorry sentences<br>Miraculous repentances<br>I don`t believe her<br>Tomorrow he will come to me<br>And speak his sorrow endlessly and ask me why<br>Why can`t I leave her?<br>He comes for conversation<br>I comfort him sometimes<br>Comfort and consultation<br>He knows that`s what he`ll find.
