What Song

I can't make promises
I'll just be lulled
lulled to sleep in the hum
of leaving

and what song will play
when you look over at me
this time
what lyrics will catch my
sun hair
and my hands
and leave you a believer?

I am not much to look at
or too much to be
I've given my life ten times
since you last saw me

but dear I can almost guarantee
in between the gazing
and thrilled child-like amazement
I will be dozing

so what song will play
when you check on me
crumpled and breathing slowly
what words will speak to our hearts
dance through my eyes
and leave you a believer?
