Love In Water - The Moodsick Fever Breaks

Here we go with these laughing problems
We start to cry when we try to solve 'em
We swim in time like two clumsy dolphins
Just laughing our troubles away
She claps her hands like a marionette
I stomp my feet and we start to regret
All those nights where we sat in silence
Not singing our praise to the day
I feed her grapes as she's quoting Shakespeare
Then will I give you this serving creature
Her dirty mouth up close to my ear
Says, I've had quite enough of your grapes
The sun sank like a red-hot air balloon
The night arrived with the peeping Tom Moon
We only know how to ooo, aah, sing, and swoon
And carry our love like a blade
It slices fear and chocolate cake
I paint her nails and she talks for hours
Her words explode with shotguns and flowers
They quench my thirst like those April showers
That turn the brown leaves to green
My mind at times is a prickly cactus
When I'm too blind or too cool to notice
Beneath the rind is a perfect lotus
That floats on a cloud made of dreams
She's got a heart that's a burning ember
As I recall and as I remember
It was born in the month of December
And it turned the ice into to steam
I fell in love with the lonely raven
I fell in love with the heart that's breakin'
I fell in love with the bomb that's tickin'
To the time she keeps in her brain
Like the drip, drip, drip of the rain
Who can predict all these tiny earthquakes
When eyes are charged emotive landscapes
We sit and sweat until the Moodsick fever breaks
And offer each other some tea
My goldfish died and I thought I lost my soul
I never lied except about my self control
But she tickled me with a 10 foot long pole
Saying, it's gone my friend
It is free
Now flush it 'cause I have to pee
We build our lives
Over bridges and interstates
And though we buy
All those things that we can't create
We decide what is real and what is fake
And carry our love like a blade
It slices through our doubt and pain
And our smiles may well wax and wane
But it's laughter that keeps us both
Sane
