Lefty , I can't imagine how he got his name
Always did things backwards . . . so . . . . .
I was not surprised when he up and went away
Never said why , when , or where he had to go
Now he is growing old where as they say
"Only God Knows"
What are clouds anyway ?
Water vapor in the sky ?
I think it is so much more
I think they are recycled tears
Of every broken heart that ever be
Falling to a desert below
My cactus flower
Blooming in the night
So none will see
She keeps her love close
Protected by her needles
I sit and watch her bloom
And before the sun has begun
I leave looking for lefty
And the reasons I quit
Are the excuses I choose
Between the desert and the sea
Where the cause will be
Clouds keep winking at me
The circle is broken into pieces
I speak in deserts of sand
Drown in seas of lingering waves of pain
And I have no clue where lefty went
Only remember a cactus flower blooming
Without the thorns between the two
