I Need To Be

Jandek


Oh she looks so good
I've got her real good in my mind 
I've told her a thousand times 
God knows she understands 
Every day she marches into my eyes 
Roam around my brain 
I'e got his journey I'm thinking of 
Where she'll help me all the way 
I need to walk this narrow road 
The time is almost overdue 
One last stab at inspiration 
While one last thread holds the bridge 
Another fair and I'm really for the woods 
Do I have a house to live in? 
Am I to be a people's person? 
Do I walk away with an aimless shrug 
Eyes always looking over the next meadow? 
Or do I win your heart? 
Make you see me as a real friend 
Where's the place I need to be? 
What's that power I know I got? 
Lord God I'm looking for it
