Desdemone from Straight Lines by Ilan Isakov

Oh Desdemone, she don’t sleep
she just smokes and stares at the stars fallin’ on her street

She’s known the night so long
she tells me that each hour has it’s own song

So if I drift, give me a shake
or just hold my feet until I wake Until I wake, I won’t be gone
Just save me a place
When the new day comes

They’ve got eyes and ears all over this town
I can’t scratch my back without bein’ found out

So I’m packin’ up, and headed West
where I don’t do no good, but I feel my best

So if I drift, give me a shake
or just hold my feet until I wake
Until I wake, I’ll dream of you
Just save me a place when I come back through
