Search through the sky for a sign or a simple suggestion
I waited all night but I was fast asleep when it knocked upon my door
It gets lonely here when it's just me and my questions
Jetsam in the ether, pulsar's pull not drawing anymore
I remember it like yesterday
I thought you were lovely I just didn’t know what to say
There’s all these protocols that get in the way
We were on the edge of seventeen
All we knew to say were things we didn’t mean
I still impressed you with my wit it seemed
I learned so much from magazines and television
About how men relate through rules to tell them how
Oh I saw the signals with precision
The moments when our habits faltered
Omens of desire unaltered
It wasn’t long ’til we were sharing beds
With different dressings on the dreams appearing in our heads
I wanted a lover you a brother instead
Either way these things were hard to name
Never quite knowing did we feel the same
After a while all I could feel was shame
