The Slip

Through The Iron Gate

The Slip


Through the iron gate 
A memory comes too late 
Closing up a window while you and I hesitate 

But I will look to you and you to me 
I get taken and mistaken habitually 

I get tossed like a bone to the dogs in the sky 
And closing is a gathering of eyes 
But I will look to you and you to me 
In between the space we chase the tune we dreamed so lazily 

And I will look to you and you to me 
Habitually 

I get tossed like a bone to the dogs in the sky 
And closing is a gathering, a gathering of eyes 

But I will look to you and you to me 
In between the space we chase the tune we dreamed so lazily
