Jean-Pierre (Miles Davis) |
Part of her is still sitting in that cafe
listening to that song
the record, scratched.
She was deep in his pockets then
the omens were clear.
She just wanted out of the rain
just wanted to whisper his name
over and over
not thinking about lifting the needle off the groove.

Not thinking about lifting the needle off the groove
listening to that song
over and over
the record, scratched
the omens, clear.
She was too deep into his pockets.
She just wanted to whisper his name.
Part of her is still sitting in that cafe.
Part of her still wants out of the rain.
* * *
She still just wants to be out of the rain
listening to that song
that whispered his name,
the record scratched.
Over and over,
the omens were too clear.
She is no longer deep in his pockets
but part of her is still sitting in that caf�
not lifting the needle off the groove.
