Mary-Anne do you remember
The tree by the river
When we were seventeen?
Dark canyon wall, the call and the answer
And a mare in a pasture
Pitch black and baring its teeth
I recall the sun in our faces
Stuck and leaning on graces
And being strangers to change
The radio and the bones we found frozen
And all the thorns and the roses
Beneath your windowpane
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'd like to say
But I wonder to who, what it is you're sayin' today
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'd like to say
But I wonder to who, what it is you're sayin' today
Mary-Anne do you remember
The tree by the river
When we were seventeen?
Darkened, you rode I was coy in the half moon
Happy just to be with you
And you were happy for me
