Last of the men in hats hops off the coil
|
And a final scene unfolds inside
|
Deep in the rain of sparks behind his brow
|
Is a part replayed from a perfect day
|
Teaching her how to whistle like a boy
|
Love's first blush
|
|
Is this making sense?
|
What am I trying to say?
|
Early evening June
|
This room and a radio play
|
This I need to save
|
I choose my final thoughts today
|
Switching off with you
|
|
All the clocks give in
|
And the traffic fades
|
And the insects like, like a neon choir
|
The instant fizz
|
Connection made
|
And the curtains sigh
|
In time
|
With you
|
|
You, the only sense the world has ever made
|
Early evening June
|
This room and radio play
|
This I need to save
|
I choose my final scene today
|
Switching off
|
|
Ran to ground for a while there
|
But I came off pretty well
|
|
You, the only sense the world has ever made
|
This I need to save
|
A simple trinket locked away
|
I choose my final scene today
|
Switching off with you
|
