China Shoes

Cheap china shoes

Tight on my feet

All man-made fabric

Worn out and beat

Pacing the floor

Walking the street

You fly over Brooklyn

Back in a week

I left a note on the back page of your book

Volumes away but it's worth a good look

Remember me, remember that you're mine

Remember me when you get to the last line

Love in the head

Taking beach on a bike

All paper players going on strike

I left a note on the back page of your book

Volumes away but it's worth a good look

Remember me, remember that you're mine

Remember me when you get to the last line

I'm flat on my back

I'm allergic to love

My rate of recovery is not fast enough

With time on my hands I'm waiting to hear

Our last night in Chelsea

Where it seems like years

I left a note on the back page of your book

Volumes away but it's worth the good look

Remember me, remember that you're mine

Remember me when you get to the last line
