Thirdly incarnation, with a serenade (indiscretion).
 
Consider the window to its view.
 
Charming I thought to myself—
 
you've got a man across the street selling flowers in the middle of the night.
 
The ambulant perpetrator waives with a broken wrist.
 
I got about 6 bucks to my name.
 
I put the cash down for something real!
 
Let me get around—
 
I say hey girl come look over here.
 
 
Your sweater is on backwards and I think it's a bit cold tonight.
 
Don't get me wrong.
 
I just want to lay with you on the thin ice, and,
 
they'll make a movie about it.
 
 
Forever and always.
 
A feature film for the rest of my days.
