Verse
On an airport “USA Today,” in a dark black ballpoint pen
You write, “These people are like skeletons
Wrapped up in perfumed skin”
And it’s such a stupid sentiment
But write it once again
Let your anger fill the margin
And I’ll kiss your shaking hand.
Chorus
’Cause I love you for the things you see
And I don’t mind if you see me
With my wrinkled hands and glazed eyes
As obscene
You’re right in ways that you don’t know
And you’re untouched by the undertow
All that speed and anger burns your body clean
Chorus
And I love you for the things you feel
So thoroughly that they turn real
As the sea comes rushing toward us
Deep and cold
And your rowmate, this nonentity
As the screams and salt sea smother me
Will reach out a wrinkled hand for you to hold
