A Thousand Kisses Deep

	The ponies run, the girls are young,
	The odds are there to beat.
	You win a while, and then it's done -
	Your little winning streak.
	And summoned now to deal
	With your invincible defeat,
	You live your life as if it's real,
	A Thousand Kisses Deep.
	I'm turning tricks, I'm getting fixed,
	I'm back on Boogie Street.
	You lose your grip, and then you slip
	Into the Masterpiece.
	And maybe I had miles to drive,
	And promises to keep:
	You ditch it all to stay alive,
	A Thousand Kisses Deep.
	And sometimes when the night is slow,
	The wretched and the meek,
	We gather up our hearts and go,
	A Thousand Kisses Deep.
	Confined to sex, we pressed against
	The limits of the sea:
	I saw there were no oceans left
	For scavengers like me.
	I made it to the forward deck.
	I blessed our remnant fleet -
	And then consented to be wrecked,
	A Thousand Kisses Deep.
	I'm turning tricks, I'm getting fixed,
	I'm back on Boogie Street.
	I guess they won't exchange the gifts
	That you were meant to keep.
	And quiet is the thought of you,
	The file on you complete,
	Except what we forgot to do,
	A Thousand Kisses Deep.
	And quiet is the thought of you,
	The file on you complete,
	Except what we forgot to do,
	A Thousand Kisses Deep.
