The Ios Blues #2
1992

she don't wanna be a honeydog no more
she don't want to be my angel-whore no more
singing in trucks for frenchmen
sleeping in the wild on the cool cool ground

she don't like that i think of you
but what the fuck am i supposed to do?
forget your thighs and beautiful eyes just like that?
no way!
you know - i love her
and I miss you ...
less and less

but she seen me daydream remembering you
in black tights and ragged dress
smiling in the long hall way to your bed
cat hairs on my black coat might of given us away to the world
but it really didn't matter did it?

i carried your purple rock in my fist
till it disappeared in the blue sunrise of ios
in the lonesome dawn, she was beautiful calm, still asleep
i lay awake listening to music and watching her sweet lips
and trying to love her despite her bitterness
and missing you
less and less

a time to forget
naked in the sun
sex on a boulder by the blue blue aegean
being thankful for being thankful
and walking on eggshells

...singing hitchhiker harmonies in france
sleeping in the wild on the cool cool grass
she didn't like that i'd think of you
but what the hell could anybody do?
these days i try to love her as much as my fears allow
and miss you less and less
- try to love her despite her bitterness
and miss you...
