Song: Making Place for You

Making Place for You 
by Sergio A. Ortiz




I look at you to find the traces 
of the places where you’ve been. 
Look and then remember 
how unfulfilled my life seemed. 


I look because I’m single 
and know that I can.  
Don’t want you to remember me 
with any other man. 


I look and find the traces 
of the places where I’ve sinned. 
Look and then remember 
how distill these scores still seem.


And fireflies are glittering
Like they’ve seen all of these signs
I want you ever closer, ever closer,
‘til you’re mine.
