The History

I'm working on a few new songs right now. This one is entitled "The History," and is a male-female duet.

Him:
Are you ever wondering
What's become of Sullivan?
She and I we took a drive
As studded stars lit up a moonless sky.
When we hit the watershed
Thoughts of only you had filled my head.
And so to Cambridge we would drive
Somehow Sully read my drifting eyes.

Them:
I would wait
I had closed my eyes
For you to sleep
But I was still awake
And called the one who has my only heart
She has your only heart
And I sang
I heard you sing to her
I could sing to you
You could sing to me
But we both know it wouldn't mean the same

Her:
Are you ever wondering
What's become of him?
He and I had motored North
As fireworks lit up a moonless Fourth.
When we hit 500 miles
My hand coupled his hand for a while
The way his eyes had held the road
I could tell he wished for your hand to hold.

Them:
Do you talk?
I've got a heavy mind
A heavy heart
This is not the time
A purple elephant sits in the back.
A purple elephant sits in the back.
I heard you sing
I could sing to you
What would you sing?
You love someone who doesn't love you back.

There's a faint line in the sand
From when I drew a heart with my hand
Well the water had to rise

The twilight fades to grey
We're northbound on the Palisades.
