Long song with words of all kinds
Song sung it sparkles and shines
You paint the pools that lye on their backs
Skip a stone and spit pass the cracks
Blue song sung loose on my knees
The wind sing for horseflies and bees
Well who knows, explain
Who knows, explain
The sea song besides your eyes fine
Your eyes note of colors and lines
The sad song as the weather hold hands
The love song stood loose but it stands
The movers moved away
The song sung let it stay
The sea song besides your eyes fine
Your eyes note of colors and lines
The sad song as the weather held hands
The love song stood loose but it stands
The movers moved away
The song sung let it stay
Well who knows, explain
Who knows, explain
