At what time and place/
shall we shorten the space/
betwixt and between us?/
For soon you and I must/
have gelato face to face.

What’s the matto/
with a first gelato?/
It’s not long enough/
to fall in love!/
Yet I still wanna go.

I have gone farther, /
deeper, truer, with her, but/
I’m still not enough.

I do not yet know/
when I’ll venture out and go/
eating gelato.

OR

I do not yet know/
when I’ll enjoy gelato./
Mi andiamo!

If you change your mind
any time,
and you want to dine
on the lawn,
in the sun,
that would be fun.
Or I could still see ya
at IKEA.

I want to let go/
completely, but until you /
say ok, I can’t.

OR

I want to be in/
completely, but until you /
say ok, I can’t.

You trapped at a desk,/
I must confess, is reason/
to send the season.

Even her daughters/
fin’lly like me. Why can’t she/
eventually?

OR

Even her daughters/
finally like me. Will she,/
eventually?

Do we yet hope for/
a new amazing? Or are/
we too tired to fight?

OR

Do we hope for a/
new amazing? Or are we/
just too tired to fight?

I’m tired of trying/
to convince folks to like me./
To cave is not Dave.
