the l" word"

i climb in bed

she's distracted

flipping pages

asking for the matches

cigarette smoke hangs

just like a curtain

that makes me wonder

is her love for certain?

i see the truth now

she gave me the blues today

she turns the lights out

whenever i want to play

she don't get the message

all i ever wanted was your love

all i ever wanted was your love

our love is dyin'

on the cold sheets

my body aching

to warm a heart with no heat

just a whisper

of the l" word
