lyrics

Of all the things that come and go
I miss Melissa the most,
her tequila perfume footprints
in fading night-torn ghosts,
that heart repeating to my left
in blood-red lightning bolts.
Of all the things that come and go,
I miss Melissa the most.

Your blue mirrors I stared into
quietly, quietly all night,
and you into the muddy water of mine
until the white wave between would rise.

Of all the things that come and go,
I miss Melissa the most.
More than the telephone wire does the skyful crow,
the monsoon, the comet, the trembling snow.
You were my last dance, my electric echo,
proof my spirit could sing in soprano.
Of all the things that come and go,
I miss Melissa the most.

It’s all honey under the bridge, my dear,
just mirrors facing mirrors
and mirrors and mirrors and more,
the bridge that connects what’s after
to before.
The bridge that connects what’s after
to before.

It’s all honey under the bridge, my dear,
just mirrors facing mirrors
and mirrors and mirrors and more.

Of all the things that come and go,
I miss Melissa the most.
