This thorn of love twisting inside of me
this undefined longing fear never a natural part of me instinctively reaching out handwriting so familiar to me one flesh halved - torn by self - a trail of burnt promises
Out there at night do you need some company when the morning comes I will sing for you
Fast city stains your innocence - I know it well
sly fortune's logical illusion - it's the hardest sell
die poor pride - take it to your first love and I tell you - he will find a way
Out there at night do you need some company when the morning comes I will sing for you

two of these songs were on a compilation called Return of the Beat Menace--Caught in the Motion and Catch Me I'm Falling. I'm pretty sure these are different versions of those songs, and it is great to hear other songs from this era. Dennis Draeger
