God  bless the daylight, the sugary smell of springtime
remembering  when you were mine in  a still suburban town
When  every Thursday, I'd brave those mountain passes
and  you'd skip your early classes and we'd  learn how our bodies worked
God  damn the black night, with all its foul temptations
I've  become what I always hated when  I was with you then
We  looked like giants in the back of my grey sub-compact
fumbling  to make contact as  the others slept inside
and  together there in  a shroud of frost, the mountain air
began  to pass through every pane of weathered glass
and  I held you closer than  anyone would ever get
