Little You & I

(album: Live At Java Joe's - 2001)

I wrote this song for my cat
He's just sitting on my bed, while I played the music
If the song sucked, he would get up and leave, ya know?
So I had to play on something mellow, soothing
So I wrote it in two stages, you know?
The first stage is the cat falling asleep, right?
And the second stage is the dream life of the kitty, feline

See you close your eyes
And you say goodnight, I say, in your own special way
And you, while you rest your head, yeah
And you say you rest, you rest your mind sometime

And there you go
There you go so so so fast asleep
There you go so so so fast away
There you are without a care when or where
But there you are I swear without a care where you lay
Shh

Meow Meow Meow

Did I kill the song for anyone right there, heh?
Everyone was like "That was our song for my boyfriend and I, and it's about a cat"
That's why cat comes into the bedroom while you're having sex and says "hey there"

Say spiraling, spiraling spaces tangled up, up in moments of touching time
Trying to find some somewhere sleeping sideways
Pockets full of nothing, and head exploding from the mind
Too much time for dancing in our hair
Sister don't be shy between little you and I

Time for solo

Mouths in line, tears in beside
And we're gonna weep in between the sleep
Until we float away into broken promises
That are too much too hard to keep
And we would sell our souls to the devil if he promised us hell
It's something we already know so well

And it's right on, I said it's right, I said right on the tip of our tongue
I said I said it's something big that has already begun, already begun
And I'm singing it

Oh mouths in line, tears beside
Oh and we're gonna weep in between the sleep
Until we float away
Until we float away into broken prom
Oh love, broken promises
Said, broken promises
Said, broken
Broken
Broken promises
Said, broken
Broken
Broken promises

Oh my
Just little you and I, oh my my
I had no way
Oh my my
I had no idea
