jealousy


it was only a kiss
[oh what a kiss will lead to]
something I wish
I’d never saw
something stuck in a dream

I only dream
I only dream
the same dream now
and I’m sure it must be killing me

the kiss & the dress
the drag of the cigarette

as the song goes on
so does the kiss
—slipping off her dress
