plasticine

leave me love
just leave me alone
go off on a trip
and don't come back home
take a one way flight
off to Chinatown
buy a ticket to a Circus
and become a clown
i don't care what you do
so just cut me some slack
don't return my letters
or email me back
ignore me please if you will
and forget my name
hopefully in time and space
i'll learn to do the same
find another love, love
to gently hold your hand
to sit and talk all night
and to understand
do it! i don't mind
take love out to dinner
wine and dine love until
the saint's become a sinner
then take love to your bedroom
and make sweet slow love
vibrate the air as usual
make love see what you're made of
then, leave love hanging love
then make up with a smile :)
let love wonder and wonder
while you love another child
let love quarrel with you
trust me, i don't mind
i've neither the wherewithal
nor the sweet time
let love nag you
as you politely say
let love be the one to see your soul
and add light to your day
there you have it love
you're free to walk away
maybe we'll run into each other
in a land far far away
where we won't remember names
or the dreams we were made of
no we won't remember anything
not even the love...
love, leave me
oh please, leave me love
no don't return the email or letters
i want to e-v-o-l-v-e.
