Drawn

by Ty Greenstein

You take the time to make your coffee right
Then you drink it down like water
And all your urgent phone calls in the middle of the night
When I can only hear your side

I dream some nights the world is ending
And there you are down the hall like a long lost friend
That I've only met in passing
So you pass me by and the story ends

Do I remind you of something you've lost?
Or maybe I just can't pay the rising cost of being
Drawn to you

They say the sun on long island is hotter than it is here
And I remember the day you left, this time last year
When I looked at you, you looked back
Nothing lost or gained and all your bags were packed
But there was no danger of a kiss
This was not love, this is all that it is
I was drawn to you, to you
