Here We Go Again for the First Time



my diamond
he could play the stand up bass
just picked that sucker up
one winter night
and made it a finger singer
with a smirk
half disbelief
half cocky
half cocked
half cock

thing about diamonds
you can never observe all the facets
you miss so much
doesn't matter how hard you look
the hardness works against you
in fact

miss how while he was
looking at
you in the wings
stage left
he was looking at her
stage right
explains the smirk
maybe half nervous too

what a strange tense
game to play
more strained
than anything he could try
with his instrument

after the concert
it didn't matter he once kissed me
in his room
she was waiting by his car in the snow
and she was cold
and he was cold
told me no
no
he'd still like my strings under his fingers
but tonight no

and I couldn't see him in front of me

because
you can't find one single facet in a blizzard
