Paradise Passage Road

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

And when I look out my window

What do I see

The old grinder selling

Sawdust balls with a moth-eaten parrot

And he plays

Watch the children play on Paradise Passage Road

I see the best things aren't free

Despite everything

This old grinder still in love

With a shiny-scaled mermaid

Quick-tailed

Some... Some place between him and a myth

And he plays

What is forever

Are there things we can change

And the parrot

He says

I... I believe in the sun and the sky

Words that just don't seem to tell me why
