Bilingual
I remember you well in the desert motel
You were naked, your hair was still wet
At the foot of the bed, with the mirror overhead
And the shape of your soft silhouette
I can picture you best in a pussybow dress
Knots of nylon chiffon at your neck
I remember champagne, and the taste of cocaine
Too impatient to fully undress
I kissed you goodbye
The softest apocalypse
I'm surprised that we survived
A victimless crime
Leave this ambiguous
Leave no fingerprints behind
And leave no loose ends untied
With your share of the rent and your boyfriend's consent
We spent weeks in those cheap rented beds
But now you send your regrets from the Chelsea address
I guess I misunderstood what you said
Well, I'm the first to confess
That I tend to forget
And my memory's subjective at best
But I felt what you felt
In the desert motel
And I've come back to pay my respects
And what's left behind?
A phone full of photographs
From the year I nearly died
But no corpse, no crime
Leave inconspicuous
Leave no fingerprints behind
Leave no witnesses this time
