|
Crown of leaves, high in the window on a gold morning |
|
Young today, old as a railroad tomorrow |
|
Days are just drops in the river to be lost always |
|
Only you, only you, you know |
|
Years ago, birds of a feather would arrive nightly |
|
Gone you know, held to another like clutched ivy |
|
On the shore, speak to the ocean and receive silence |
|
Only you, only you, you know |
|
You hesitate, so my memory fades |
|
I'll hold to the first one |
|
"I wouldn't turn to another," you say |
|
On the long night we've made |
|
Let it go |
|
Only you, only you, you know |
|
Only you, only you, you know |
|
You hesitate, so my memory fades |
|
I'll hold to the first one |
|
"I wouldn't turn to another," you say |
|
On the long night we've made |
|
Let it go |
|
Let it go |
|
Speak to me slow, my dear |
|
No ghost, of course, in here |
|
Pleased to be lonesome, quiet and clear |
|
All is alone in here |
