Under You

Better Than Ezra

Along the edges, colors blur and seem familiar.
While you read your magazine,
I was counting all the markers.

And California seemed to draw you like a siren
From a postcard, in a letter, or a frame of film melting.

Under you, I feel your breath move in, out slowly. 
Under you, let go completely feeling you take over me.
Take over me.

A Hollywood flat where we'd laugh about our fortunes 
Well we had jobs in this bar down at 3rd and San Vicente.
And Ramen Noodles at 4:30 in the morning, 
When we barely could survive, I was never more alive. 

Under you, I feel your blood flowing out slowly. 
Under you, let go completely, feeling you take over me.
Take over me.

You moved in slow degrees.
A sudden memory.
You're a Leonard Cohen song.

But every now and then I'd swear I see you standing on a sidewalk, 
In a restaurant, from a taxi passing by.

Under you I feel your breath move in, out slowly.
Under you let go completely feeling you take over me.

Take over me (x2)
