I don't recall a single thing The water spilling from the drains, the water pouring in The scented candles, the house at sunset My happiness is like a pearl It's not a thing, it's not a boy and it's not a girl It's just this something that I've been meaning to tell you See that girl there on the fence Is she as pretty as me? See that boy there moving slowly Is he as pretty as me? You can't understand what they say They have a song for every hour of the day Why is it that they say that it's dead? When it still shakes after we cut off its head See the wings flapping, see it wiggle and dance With the blood gushing out Don't let it make you feel sad Look up now, there's mom and there's dad Tell them what happened Tell them that something just ran through the house Sunday with your best friend The rain falls, it's beautiful He is walking over here He has grown and he is beautiful You let him know you mean no harm And with a single touch you'll carry the wind out of his arms Here's the waterside pavilion Here's the end of all the reasons, The changing of the seasons And the water that looks like wind Around the shipwreck, On the rail We're moving in and out of its holes
