If I Was Your Woman

Christmas twin falls idaho
is the oldest memory
she was only two
it's the first time she felt blue

I have set myself as far apart as I could
For I wanted to see into the nature of things
I am immersed in a feeling so big
I am missing you
without knowing who you are

I love you
with all of my being
I didn't know I'd ever see you but now
my head aches with the knowing of you

I see all the young in white
huddled in a spring rain
i could crack open with poison
i crawl into my sandbox to escape the pounding wet
i can't avoid the train

i wonder what the old think
of the brand of the young
the way they wear black on their luminosity
the old have no use for black

i could cry i could crack
in your treehouse thunderstorm

stuck together yeah
