Mary Anne, do you remember |
|
The tree by the river when we were seventeen? |
|
Dark canyon wall, the call and the answer |
|
And the mare in the pasture pitch black and baring its teeth |
|
I recall the sun in our faces |
|
Stuck and leaning on braces |
|
And being strangers to change |
|
Radio and the bones we found frozen |
|
And all the thorns and the roses |
|
Beneath your window pane |
|
Now I'm asleep in a car |
|
I mean the world to a potty-mouth girl |
|
A pretty pair of blue-eyed birds |
|
Time isn't kind or unkind |
|
You liked to say but I wonder to who |
|
What it is you're saying today? |
|
Now I'm asleep in a car |

|
What it is you're saying today? |
|
Mary Anne, do you remember |
|
The tree by the river when we were seventeen? |
|
Dark canyon road, I was coy in the half-moon |
|
Happy just to be with you and you were happy for me |
