|
In the bright red sky |
|
In the heat of an evening |
|
When only prisoners sleep |
|
She said she couldn't |
|
Come to the garden |
|
See an old man weep |
|
She said her dreams were too far to be thought of |
|
Her scars too wide to heal |
|
She said she couldn't come to the garden |
|
See a blind man kneel |
|
She sailed away to a blue horizon |
|
In floating thoughts she'd sway |
|
She said she couldn't come to the garden |
|
See an old man pray |
|
She wished them luck as they left on their journey |
|
Maybe she'd join them soon |
|
But she lost her grip at the tip of life's fingers |
|
Went home and worshiped the moon |
