Settled on the sill
And I called my cat
Love
If looks could kill
And that was that
The glass
Of the windowpane
And away she flew
Over the grass
Glistenin' in the rain
And on out of view
Over the buildings
Stone (w)rote cages
Where people live
Over the gilded
Old outrages
That we can't forgive
The moon
Hangin' in the sky
Like a copper pan
A tune
Welling in her eye
Goin' through Cheyenne
The wing
Of an aeroplane
And away she flew
To sing
Searing in her brain
Your point of view
Over the mountains
Changing seasons
And the falling leaves
Long ago countin'
Damn good reasons
Colors she believes
The phone
Ringin' off the hook
Like a magic wand
My own
Let me take a look
In the polluted pond
Escapes
Aren't all that bad
And away she threw
The tapes
And any chance she had
Of returning to
Over the heartache
Lucid dreaming
Of the lost way out
And if we are awake
Who's that screaming
What it's all about
A dove Settled on the sill And I called my cat Love If looks could kill And that was that The glass Of the windowpane And away she flew Over the grass Glistenin' in the rain And on out of view Over the buildings Stone (w)rote cages Where people live Over the gilded Old outrages That we can't forgive The moon Hangin' in the sky Like a copper pan A tune Welling in her eye Goin' through Cheyenne The wing Of an aeroplane And away she flew To sing Searing in her brain Your point of view Over the mountains Changing seasons And the falling leaves Long ago countin' Damn good reasons Colors she believes The phone Ringin' off the hook Like a magic wand My own Let me take a look In the polluted pond Escapes Aren't all that bad And away she threw The tapes And any chance she had Of returning to Over the heartache Lucid dreaming Of the lost way out And if we are awake Who's that screaming What it's all about Explain Request ×
