​taglock June Henry

[Verse 1]
She loves being dizzy
She spins around while she tells me
I’m nauseous just watching
But there’s no chance
That I’m looking away

I take the bus down to seventh
While the river path is sunlit
Sit down in her bedroom
Surrounded by the plants she's watering

Later she’s doing her makeup
Crouching down on the floor
I cling to every movement
Interrupted by the cat clawing at the door

[Chorus]
I love you in a way that’s not compulsive
I’m not avoiding cracks in the sidewalk to keep you
It’s not to say that I’ve given up on the good luck
I still carry my rabbit's foot and sleep above my lucky horseshoe

[Verse 2]
I’d give her a taglock
Give her all of my teeth
I know she’s got power
She uses to be good to me
We’re walking down the sidewalk
Repeating words from my priestess
We heard at the sports bar
Something so precious doesn’t have to feel like a secret
