You Will Do For Now

I will lead you if you will follow me
To graveled gray roads, Shakespearean scenes
If only you knew the love of degree
You'd slow that beating heart down
You will do for now

The December dark will keep me in the room
Soft ashtray eyes will beg to be found
I'm keeping these walls from speaking too soon
Count your love one in the crowd
You will do for now

I swear these lies won't stay long
The halos and hubris are gone
Shadow your right with my wrong
Once these sheets are gone

I will lead you if you will follow me
To graveled gray roads, cigarette scenes
Regret won't keep the sun from the sea
Soon I'll be leaving this town
You will do for now
