Big Friday

You saved me from melting, baby

You saved me from stinging and being holed up

And braking in snow and killing more

And overspilling my runneth cup

You had light in your hands and your eyes closed

You had movement out of my sight

You wore no shoes and ate like a leopard

And slept with your legs apart every night

And if I had to live

This is what it should be

To have such a woman with me

When tidal wave hit and our house was in splinters

I thought you had took all you had to take

But you snuggled to me on the ground in the winter

And your breath smelled like honey in the frosty air wake

And if I had to live

This is what it should be

To have such a woman with me
