china wine

amber flicker
body shiver
she's next to me
dusted wisps catch
cabs blowing by
(saw it all in your eyes)

it's cold, it's freezing
can't believe i'm believing
temperatures change
their mind
this time

(and i find
efforts multiplied
that silly try
still justifies why)

dusted wisps flying by
my lips in the night
caught them and kissed them
made me warm

she left
and i stayed that way
