| On her rooftop in New York |
as she sometimes does
in a dream
I tucked her in again
as I sometimes did
coming home from the office
in the middle of the night
She held onto my collar again
as she sometimes did
looking into my eyes
smiling quietly
not letting go
Who's to say what is real
and what is heartache
and which is which
or one and the same?
