a heartbeat like footsteps in the snow
a pulse with no place else to go
maybe I walk out that door
and raise a chorus of my own
I fall in love on nights like this
maybe I ought to make a wish
the moon's a yellow boat
tilting on the belly of a fish
I know I'm strong as any angel they could send
I don't want to hide the tears or hang my head
smiling 'cause I'm dancing slow and learning to bake bread
crying 'cause I'm still a fool starting again
I know that I get no kick
from a crumbhouse of pricks
I took a long walk home
dragging the anchor of your kiss
I'm not afraid to be your friend
I'm old enough to know where you've been
I'm not afraid that we won't
find that good thing again
