Reckless With Love
reckless with love
new orleans 1999
she had a noticeably cold shoulder.
didn't like it when you tried to hold her.
can't make much sense of that beautiful ambivalence.
sure she's lucky with numbers, good with dogs and kids.
smells sweet as honeysuckle wet and warm as morning kisses.
her good side is very very good and if you get yourself in trouble
she'd be there in a pinch.
but i'm warning you keep your heart where it belongs.
you're in the wrong part of town and playing recklessly with love.
