Recidivist

She’s something that I won’t have to quit
‘Cause she won’t make me sick
Quick wisdom for cool recidivist
Who always hides his wrists
And always getting lost
When the stations get crossed
In the summer of 1961
But a new plan got hatched
And it shone like the sun
And I thought it was the one
But it was nothing we haven’t done before
Don’t think it’s nothing

Four thirty in the morning
And twenty candles gone
Well did she pass out, or did she pass on
And did she go alone
I’m on an island halfway across the world
The tenderest girl
I get lost in the trees
And I pass like the breeze
‘Cause I’m nothing you’ve haven’t done before

California stars
Fall through the sun
And land on the shore
Reborn in water
And blasted through black holes
The way out is in
My leopard-spotted friend
You help me begin
Just to watch you descend
A little more grown
But you’ll have to go alone
‘Cause there’s something
That I can’t forget
But I’m still too -
