TJ Eckleberg - Wheelwright
I adjust my glassesI take a new line
I set a timer so I finish on time
From the window
I See her coming through the park
Red shirt, silver shoes
Dark hair in a bob
The early summer heat
Falls across my skin like jasmine musk
We're walking through the park
And the palm trees sway and fuss
I try to think like a wheelwright
Talking to the duke
I explain to myself again
What fine words and clever books won't do
What fine words and clever books can't do
The spring rains are falling
Through the open door
The sunset sky is red and amber
She is shaking her head and laughing at me
With no umbrella
I'm happy now but I know I won't always be
I wake up at 3am relieved to find her next to me
Sleeping peacefully
The winter winds are blowing
Snow comes through the open window
The iron clouds are grim but tonight
The closed door holds the heat in
The autumn leaves drift down
From the black branches of the trees in the park
It's almost evening but there's still time
To hold your hand and make it home
To hold your hand and make it home before dark
Ten minutes to the station
Five minutes to the park
Church steeple in the sunrise
Red sky at sunset
Don't forget
Don't forget
