D’ya remember we went to Cowboy Joe’s When the beach was lapping against our toes And all the sand between our feet Won’t pay for a place to eat And I’m starving with the hunger To you I’m just a number You can calculate Play the xylophone into another state And the wind was murder and my breath was air I was killing time just being there Til you called me up Said, hey babe, it’s love But you flick your ash onto the carpet While I’m studying the market For foreign goods And the woods Feel more like home than they ever did Do you know how to flip a lid Or a bottle cap Like the sudden shock of slap When it’s leveled against your face And your disgrace Has no meaning here My love, my dear It’s crystal clear We’re just wading through our fear And the storm is over Like the white cliffs of Dover Steady in the breeze Constancy is all you need
