Big Strong Girl

It's not now or never.

It's not black, and it's not white.

Anything worth anything takes more than a few days

and a long, long night.

Don't push so hard against the world, no, no.

You can't do it all alone, and if you could

would you really want to?

Even though you're a big strong girl

come on, come on, lay it down.

The best made plans are your open hands.

Rest your head.

You've got two pillows to choose from

in a queen-sized bed.

Hold out for the moon

but don't expect connection any time soon.

Feel the light caress your fingertips.

You have just begun, the word has only left your lips.

Maybe in time, you will find

your arms are wrapped around the sun

you're wrapped around the sun.
