pennies in arms, playing goodbye
can't out-rain morning wonder
home you're on your way
/all the merry clouds
girls, you're my tree
scrap-booked all up in goodbye clothes
/drinking outside my house and never
standing, strolling motion
one beside you, you're shining the glue
/avenue finds love again
bells like love dominoes
slow the eyes for your time
never loving, the sweet boy
and the room kids go home
and this sweet champagne
you waved on the street
never hedges a bluer goodbye
/and as sweet, in the hall
my down lovers sat
sitting so slim
then I'm steel
and just again
the one thing
when on leave
wet has you looking well
/saw the way you cherry
somebody standing old
and home you could whisper
love and rain ringing high
remember and wonder
breathe the drifting beach
was no ballerina
/drink standing up
will make you leave home
get love's glance, a star
constellations of your lovers
fly your hand like ribbons
born into dancing, street stars
you conquered my arms
the night, childlike and walking
/lovers found sandy love
eyes in wonder like fields sweet
and the bells sang broken rhymes
born into tomorrow, our wine passed on
before the train put you on the street
would you catch the crowd's eye
and grow, and walk through summertime
/the mountain, it's wrong
the land in wet dreams
keeps seeing wonders
a face of wonder ventured from the doorway
and in the still morning below the eyes
fly right into your silence in time
a sleet of water ringing the right tune
/you gotta take wings
and take your darlings
down to my mansion avenue
and never will the rain turn time
high and wheeling, your arms fly
falling back to the station
falling through the white to you
catch the stranger in your clothes
rhyming and arresting your little bridges
your lantern on my hill burning bright
/down where the bells ring in the back-street
nighttime and the time for wonder music like you do
I'm bold with goodbyes, but i cant get by you
stepping every time she comes for a kiss
i got it once and i got white like you
we were on sweet street, the avenue sweet
the one we both dream, and say i love this
/i say you're young, I'm a rain felt on your face
the wind wall spraying the window goodbye
you are the wanted and they'll try the whole night
go inside with me and the snow will be our wonder
then you can count the sun coming up slow sliding
I'm your boy but my rainbow is dying
just as I'm trying to say goodbye
all the lovers looking cold
please, never say thats you
catch me in the back-street
by chance and a goodbye will say
the time shakes and the ride is faster than wine
twenty two and the sweet past comes to me
through the lightly kissing rain like re-born
with little around for the world i first knew
these streets are a dream for you and me
/ moving back for you, young love, the darling
sun ring all around you, light ballerina
be your own, the sky will play time-chariot
but remember to see me, young and standing
step up wonder street, the avenue as a story
behind the white wall, return barefoot
i will be there always late
on the street and in the rainbow sky
