Your Name

Every morning at the break of light

I see you standing in the sun

You look at me with the kindest eyes

Every morning I'm overcome

Sorrow and glory and blinding euphoria

Everything's there in your name

In darkness when I close my eyes

I see your hair come undone

I lose myself every time

Even now I'm overcome

Roxanne, what am I supposed to say?

Words are only glass on a string

The more I arrange them and

Line up and change them

The more they mean the same thing

Roxanne
