Looking  out across  suburban yards  to the construct  of our
 days through the thinning  of the trees.
 How come  I only build  a house of cards?
 That gets blown  to pieces by the fall's  first fickle breeze.
When  I feel that stirring,  the illicit  kiss.
 That's just the cool  tongue of the devil  with a sucker  in
 his midst.
 ]
One  day I'll  change you'll  be the first  one that I call.
 I owe  you an apology too  many thanks  and that's not all.
 'Cause I've been running  long before  I learned to crawl.
 My calendar  lies crumbled  laid to waste.
 It's been scrawled  on, thumbed through and changed.
Will  this be the measure  of my days?
Dinners  and appointments and deadlines  I can't make.
 And when  I start to see  it making sense  for me.
 That's just hope springing  eternally.
 Outside the summer's  gone for good.
 Dying impatiens  stacked up wood.
 My friends will get together to cook.
 To talk about what's happened  to take a second look.
 The master  loves the servant  who blind heeds  him.
 The husband  the obedient wife.
 The snake  will always bite  the hand that feeds  him.
Even  if you love him even if  you save his life.
