letra de i thought of you again - the wave pictures

i wrote a thousand verses
each one about doctors and nurses
on paper napkins in diners
and wrote the t-tles on matchsticks
tucked them in the left breast pocket
of a tattered silk check shirt
and threw the shirt away
into the shadow of a corner
of a northern spanish bar
without br-ss in the backline
but shutters on the doors
and twenty, thirty people
in cl-sters on the floor
looking anywhere but at each other
between the runners of a busted wooden pier
before the beers with tracy on the bottle
and i thought of you at the airport
and i was still thinking of you on the plane
and when the police took my p-ssport
and wrote down my name –
i thought of you again
i was doing press-ups in the hotel lobby;
the lobby with me was unimpressed
i managed five, but i was barely alive
when i rolled over to rest
and i thought of all your illnesses
and your incredible strength
and i guess that it meant that i missed you
and i though of all the little things that always made you tense
and i wished i was able to tell you that
i’d have learnt a thousand tricks to make them disappear
with whispers in the ear
and kisses
and i though about your lips, your mouth, your smile, your laugh, your lips
your lips, your mouth, your smile, your laugh, your lips
and i though of you in sweden
like i’d been thinking of you all over spain
and when the p-ssed up student girls teased me
with the sound of my own name –
i thought of you again
