(same chords) Dark canyon wall, the call and the answer and the mare in the pasture pitch black and baring its teeth. I recall the sun in our faces, stuck and leaning on braces, and being strangers to change. Radio and the bones we found frozen, and all the thorns and the roses beneath your window pane. Chord progression II Now I'm asleep in a car, I mean the world to a potty mouthed girl, a pretty pair of blue-eyed birds. (same chords) "Time isn't kind or unkind," you liked to say. But I wonder to who And what it is you're saying today.
