Like Vermouth

I'm listening to the track you posted
in hopes for a spot light
into your mind

it doesn't get me anywhere
just reminds me
that it's music
I don't really like

but, I try
I imagine sitting on the couch
drinking cocktails with you
orange peal and vermouth

you love this song
I smile
I wish I had been
better to you

I wish I had
been better
to you

Pent up
all this love
for you
and like this song

so many beats
my pattern went
askew
sometimes a happy melody
other's a clanking wild tune

Like the flavor
of vermouth
rough
yet smooth
on the way down

why do I miss you
like vermouth
listening to songs
trying to get to you

I always loved you
I just didn't know what to do
can I love you?
and be me, too?

Rough?
Like vermouth
