Carolyn - Zox

Summer swept Chicago and left us with a little bit of rain.

We are trembling, glistening, listening to the rumble of the elevated train.

And I have never been afraid of opening myself up to a dream.

But now you’ve filled me like a bubble and the trouble is I’m bursting at the

seams.

I can’t leave you Carolyn.

It has never been so quiet and my heart will never beat this loud again.

I can’t leave you Carolyn.

To walk back out amongst the strangers, strangers who’ve grown closer than my

friends.

A square of sunlight on the bedspread and I stagger through the silence til you

wake.

We kiss away the morning, wishing that the morning lasted all day.

I have never been afraid of opening myself up to a girl.

But now I’ve let you in and you begin to shake my precarious world.

Sometimes love can be so lonely.

Sometimes love leaves you alone.
