Play

I want to show you things I haven't seen
Take you places that I haven't been
'Cause I wasn't brave
And I didn't stay
But somehow you did
And now I want to learn to play

You walk ahead
You leave a hand
Some kind of key
A nervous plan
Fright in bloom
Something new
A light there in your room
And there is nothing that I wouldn't do

If I could only move

Half sitting on the chair
Half unprepared
To get up and dance
A snake a girl a trance
To skip to crawl
Snow angels on the school floor
You in your black jeans
Me in my teen feelings
Backstage
Cheap lights
I've come to see you
Every night
And every other
Ever since
To trace the shapes
On pale skin
Mother's stain
The sun that stayed
A taste to tongue
A breath undone
To skip to fall
To run to run
To come undone
To come undone

If I could only move
