Manila

All that I see are the either or’s and I’m

Still yours

And I’m slipping out the way I choose

Like soft, slight sunday blues

All that I taste now

Faint manila so familiar

Flying gulls raging in the wind

Race the ships, wings guided by the waves

Pressure at bay

Tension’s here to stay the gulf coast way

All that I take now is my time

You’re so graceful, holding but losing us

It’s great how you’re so selflss with our

Shared life

You're untouchable, stunning

I’m drowning in this sea, your love all the

Time, it’s ours if you say so

Just want something more to take a hold of

When everything turns out differently

I’ll keep promising and listening to the loons

All that I take now is my time

You're so patient, holding but losing us

It’s great how I’m so selfih with our

Shared life

All that I taste now, faint manila, so familiar

I’m yours
