Well, we watched the starlings fly, Around the burnt-down pier and die, Spilled my coffee on my sleeve, She wiped it with a smile, And told me I was juvenile, And kissed me softly on my cheek And her hair danced in the breeze, Like a thousand swinging trees, In a forest lying next to stormy seas
Well, we watched the wintry sky, Turn a shade of turquoise, Whispered softly, I feel lost, She turned with laughing eyes, And curled her lips towards the sky, And said, get your map out, then, you knob And we laughed like a pair of fools, Like kids, they laugh at school, And we wandered home before the day brought dusk
