Honey Bee

There was a time I could keep up with you

When you were faithful and your compass true

But then an earwig loosened your last screw

Now you look at me like someone you once knew

You are a comet, when you streak close by

The radios get weak

And all your teeth glow when you speak

Your language shocking, yes, but sweet

And now you buzz yourself to sleep

You're just a tired honey bee

Would you do this thing for me

Land softly, yeah

Land softly, yeah

Land softly

These are the photos that I kept

That's me crumbling bereft

But you're still smiling on my left

So it's not so serious as that

There was a time I would have laughed with you

And now you buzz yourself to sleep

You're just a tired honey bee

Would you do this thing for me

Land softly, yeah

Land softly, yeah

Land softly
