I know it's hard to be a woman, 'cause I felt one Always known and had this feeling, when I held one She was spilling on the sidewalk While I was sleeping up in Woodstock, what did I miss? Maybe happy's just a haircut, never had one Cut your color, change your curl, for a bad one I know beauty's unfair 'Cause a woman just didn't care When I was all undone She says "I love you" when I'm naked, and I should cry Wondering' if I could fake it, how could I watch her with another? Scared to become a mother better than she had Sleeping' on pacific highways, dog in car Cleaninl out dead apartments, and the pigeon bars Sit and write me a letter I said, "someday I'll start feelin' better" But I don't I just wonder I lie deaf and dumb I can't know woman Cause I never held one Never been one I've never owned one I've never been one

Morning room light vapor A clouded dust around me Circle moonlight passion I can feel it on me You got a loose prognosis I ain't got sh_t around me My feet are freezing Not the rest of my body They were difficult to find Bodies linger on the mind Been lookin' loose and porous And I just play two chords for a chorus Livin' high inside a residence of forests Find the hollowness, find where the door is They got hard to bear Body lingers, feeling scared I'm gonna leave strong But - I'm only one You got alive from slumber Shoulda run towards lovers But instead I run from something I don't wanna They were difficult to find You got wrapped inside my mind Go forward in there You got harder, harder, harder to bear You left a humble heap of rags on a park bench Where you wanna get to be that one trained up beside you Look inside your mirror, slowly, close it Open your mind, I am overflowing Falling inhibitions of my mind takes shapes of wine You got an eager body Let out a scream, "Mind, stop this!" Cracks of pavement I see Love erodes in my animal body They were difficult to bear You, calling on the mountain air Loser, loser, I'm losing all my hair It happens slowly but one day you look, and it's not there

I got home a little too late Didn’t know then what I wanted to say He got home to set it all straight “I been with a girl with your same first name” Lookin’ for one, we found two girls Way down south and the Top of the World A change in my hat, and a beard on my chin Everything changes when something begins Waiting there, at the top of the stairs Yellow light shines through the blue in her hair I headed down, alone, to my place And he headed up to the bed he had made I met her dad before I met her Good head of hair, and sharp with his words “You two kids would get along great, so write down your number – her name is Renee”

Already Home 07:13
Lover, please, I won’t walk no other way Move out laughing from your halo Every time I see you cry I want to share With you my body and take off your clothes Lose my load, out the door with sympathy Tiny pathways in the snow Lock the door down on my own, then look to leave But I already have my home There were trails on the back roads of our streets Leading from your car to my home I was driving past the horses all last week Looking at me while they eat to stay warm And I was floating over you that night, it seemed We found “one” inside the cold Past the doorway, to release in harmony Where I already have my home Faces weary of the back door They don’t promise me to stay The memories all want to go, But I been waiting for you every time you come back home My heart exploding on the corners of your cheeks, I was losing every ounce I hold Lock the door, and now just throw yourself to me Yeah I already have my home Take your “love song strong” and leave it on the street, There are tiny pathways made of snow Flowing down over my skin in harmony ’Cause I already have my home, Yeah I already have my home
