"i surrender, dear"
for penny
no matter what
i might do
to get you off my mind
you just won't leave the premises
& i don't know how to make it
any clearer, you been
gone so long
that i should be done got
over you by now
but no, there you are
in every motherfucking song
that enters my brain, every day
i want to call you
on the phone & tell you
i love you
in so many words like that,
i can't live without you,
let's get back together,
i want to marry you
& stay with you
for the rest of my life,
let's move to new orleans
& leave this place behind,
i'll be true to you
like i was so long
when we were together,
i don't want no-one else
as long as i have you,
these are the words
i wish i could say, but my pride
& the hard times we had
make me hold my tongue,
when you put me
out i swore
there'd be no more going back
& i been trying to make it
without you so long
that it's driving me crazy,
no buts & no maybes,
do you want me back,
can you live without me,
shouldn't we be together,
can't we just swallow our foolish pride
& stop questioning everything
& face the facts for real
you & me together,
baby, all ways
you & me--
i surrender dear
