It Never Stops

McCarren Park when your body gave ground 1 o'clock, June 6, sun out God hid in amphetamine waves Margaritas & disposable days We folded arms & I felt your heart hum Speedy eyes & I want what I want The truth, cut with adrenalized fear Cashed baggies in our ashtray beers I know you know I want to love you but I can't let go Honey, it never stops No, it never stops McCarren Park when the culture crashed down Copy after copy til the color washed out I bet the future on an ice cream cone I kept it secret till I took you home The day split to two sides You flipped a quarter, said "I can't decide." Honey, it never stops The leaves laughed, the bed burned I know I want you, but I'm waiting my turn Honey, it never stops No, it never stops McCarren Park when the beauty bled out 20 years in my cottonball mouth You held my hand, said, "Don't let me drift." I said, "I'd never even think of it." And I knew, right there I could have you but I'd have to share Honey, it never stops So we slept, the sun left I dreamt nothingness in shades of red Honey, it never stops No, it never stops
