Elegie
Allen Lanier / Patti Smith
I just don't know what to do tonight
My head is aching as I drink and breathe
Memory falls like cream in my bones
Moving on my own
There must be something I can dream tonight
The air is filled with the moves of you
All the fire is frozen yet still
I have the will
Trumpets, violins
I hear them in the distance
And my skin emits a ray
But I think it's sad, it's much too bad
That our friends can't be with us today
