be good
Summer days, heavy in the city, the sun took a dive into the street
Dark skies, jets outshine the starlight, the wind is a stranger, kilowatts push the heat
A lover’s touch transmits secret language, a kiss burns a code that doesn’t fade
Signals tangle in the ether and echo to the river through the helicopter blades
These words tumble from your lips
Simple lines ring true
You said, baby, be good to me
And I will be good to you
Scientists with silver blades stalk around my bed
Angel dressed in red flies around my head
She said she’ll get a change a clothes, she’ll get my books, and she’ll get food
But a kiss will have to wait till you feel good
These words tumble from her lips
Simple lines ring true
You said, baby, be good to me
And I will be good to you
