anything with you
originally written 07.23.03

i know that
this shirt will just
stay in my closet for one weekend more.
and i know
these plans will just
fall to the ground, and they never will soar.
i'd like to
know that i am
wrong about this, just be wrong for one time.
i'd like to
know that i won't
wake up next week with a weak-end behind.

i'm not looking for anything to do
or for anyone to do
on this lonely friday night.
unless it's anything to do
with nobody but you
on this lonely friday night.

if you knew
how it feels
to feel for you when you won't feel for me
then you'd know
how it feels
to walk in the dark toward goals you can't see.
when you talk
i cannot tell
if you're calling for me to reach out toward you.
when i hear
your voice streaming
from your mouth to my ear i see shades of blue.

i'm not looking for anything to do
or for anyone to do
on this lonely friday night.
unless it's anything to do
with nobody but you
on this lonely friday night.
if there's anything to do
i'd do anything with you
on this lonely friday night.
there's not anything to do
if it's anyone but you
on this lonely friday night.

if you could see me gazing
straight at the stars
wondering where you are...
if you could hear me wishing
on falling stars
to bring me where you are...
if you could see me gazing
into your eyes
would you realize
that i've been wishing you would
gaze back to mine?
just let my heart shine.

i'm not looking for anything to do
or for anyone to do
on this lonely friday night.
unless it's anything to do
with nobody but you
on this lonely friday night.
if there's anything to do
i'd do anything with you
on this lonely friday night.
there's not anything to do
if it's anyone but you
on this lonely friday night.
