it would take a picture to make the pieces of your face fall into place ah, but i know your body i've outlined it in my mind a million times sometimes, at night i hold my pillow next to me and pretend we never drifted apart in search of better things There must be a poem in here somewhere.

Oh, that old pillow trick, Faith, has been squeezed and wept on and thrown across the room by millions of forlorn lovers. |

there is a comfort to this melancholy that can only be best described as you have written...that pillow (as Jerry has identified it.) ...relating smiles of understanding to you |
