I didn't even detect
She loved the light, was dismayed by the dark
The stars, though, she seemed to respect
The faint light that flutters at night to the Earth
Would land in her eyes and collect
Luminous creatures she'd find in the surf
I never thought to inspect
Pebbles and marbles, like things on my mind
Seem to get lost and harder to find
When I am alone, I am inclined
If I find a pebble in the sand
To think that it fell from my hand
She gave me ideas, planted the seed
But she never stopped to reflect
The course that she's on, wherever it leads
I never would redirect
Pebbles and marbles, like words from a friend
Make us hold tight, but are lost in the end
When we're alone, we all seem to tend
If we find a marble in the dust
To wish someone left it for us
Pebbles and marbles, like things on my mind
Seem to get lost and harder to find
When I am alone, I am inclined
If I find a pebble in the sand
To wish that it fell from my hand
Pebbles and marbles, like things on my mind...
She started a blaze from one tiny spark I didn't even detect She loved the light, was dismayed by the dark The stars, though, she seemed to respect The faint light that flutters at night to the Earth Would land in her eyes and collect Luminous creatures she'd find in the surf I never thought to inspect Pebbles and marbles, like things on my mind Seem to get lost and harder to find When I am alone, I am inclined If I find a pebble in the sand To think that it fell from my hand She gave me ideas, planted the seed But she never stopped to reflect The course that she's on, wherever it leads I never would redirect Pebbles and marbles, like words from a friend Make us hold tight, but are lost in the end When we're alone, we all seem to tend If we find a marble in the dust To wish someone left it for us Pebbles and marbles, like things on my mind Seem to get lost and harder to find When I am alone, I am inclined If I find a pebble in the sand To wish that it fell from my hand Pebbles and marbles, like things on my mind...
