You sentimental fool You broke all the rules And now you will have to suffer For what was uncovered Was better left alone As grief is both a prison and a poem A thousand words too long You are a victim and i am a song Concern yourself with reason And you may do yourself real harm We shall let the river guide us And then we'll travel on By moonlight we will follow The waterβs serpentine meandering And allow our candles to burn out Triads of dreams inevitably Come unraveled at the seams Until we learn to speak in tongues Borrowed from our grandmothers Some say that loveβs escapades Are too dangerous for their heart So we've learned to stay Far away from those people
