My friend David told me
|
The heart beats like a dream
|
Down there at the railway station
|
The Lights are turning green
|
|
That little black-robed Franciscan priest
|
Struts down to ???????????
|
Tips his hat at all the North Americans
|
And dreams the dream of the argonauts
|
|
We know the truth of the undeveloped heart
|
Poplars on the Seinne and Sunset Boulevard
|
The noise that can drive a love asunder
|
Sometimes your dreams can leave you under
|
|
We go climbing down myriad flights of stairs
|
Blowing off the heat and dust
|
Stetch our romantic souls
|
To cover the wunderlust
|
|
At midnight in some strange city
|
Black-burned and medieval
|
Shiver inside our paper thin raincoats
|
And the silence that knows no evil
|
|
We know the truth of the undeveloped heart
|
Poplars on the Seinne and Sunset Boulevard
|
The noise that can drive a love asunder
|
Sometimes your dreams can leave you under
|
|
The heart can be a lonely hunter
|
