Please do this one thing for me
thank you… could you do it again
could you do it again ad infinitum
Push me a little closer to the edge
a little nearer to the rivers flow
It’s ok, I have my boat and paddle
I am used to working against the tide

it helps me greatly… together we may
do it again, do it again ad infinitum
Push me, I need gentle tough persuasion
to uncork the champagne, or race against time
It’s ok, I have my ways and customs
I am used to misunderstanding my dreams
