you did not come - arthur prysock lyrics

how long
how long can i live this night

look! the clouds shine
darling, how did you do it
the wind is soft, the rain is beautiful
what did you do to the wind, and the rain?
and the clouds, and to me
see! i am drunk
hi! i am drunk, on you

we will cross here, where the street is crowded
and i may hold your hand
we will ride the subway
that we may sit touching
that there be no distance between us
speak!
that i may fill my ears with you
stay near me
so that i may fill my lungs with you
come home with me, that i may fill my arms with you
come, only where i can see you
come home with me

if only i could fit my life’s time into thesе hours
that i might say i was with her, 8 to 12 o’clock
and years passed
i shall nеver forget you
nor will your memory ever be free of me
for your arms are my home
and my arms are the circle you cannot leave, however far you go

i waited years today, one year for every hour
all day
though i knew you could not come till night
i waited
and nothing else in this god’s h*ll meant anything

i had everything you loved
sh*llfish, salt sticks, watercress, black olives
wine, for the watch i p*wned
real cream for our coffee
smoked cheese, carrots and pork
preserved wild cherries

i bought purple asters from a push*cart florist
and placed them where they would be between us
imagining your lovely face among them

but you did not come
you did not come
you did not come
and i left the table lit, and your glass filled, and my glass empty
and i went into the night, looking for you
