In Holland there is a table
|
in front of me
|
with cafe' au lait
|
and some kind of cookie
|
outside the window
|
there's a wide and gentle canal
|
two swans swim in it,
|
in their mirror images
|
they must be in love.
|
|
The handsome Holland people
|
ride ecological bikes
|
or sometimes their dogs
|
might take them along for a hike,
|
I stood by the tall ships
|
and stepped in some old Dutch dog shit,
|
it began to rain
|
a strange enchanted mist
|
and I love the cookies here
|
I could live forever here
|
with you.
