Paroles de Song For The Julian Calendar

Sun twinkling on the river this evening

The taste of chocolate on my tongue

Darkness climbing up the ladders to the sky
Rung by agonizing rung



Heard firecrackers popping next door

Wondered what it was I'd bargained for

And I laid quiet on the floor

And you were not here



Let me be a witness

Let me walk out on the edge

The sun refused to shine on my back yard today


I heard the firecrackers bursting on the sidewalk

Heard you talking that baby talk

Saw the black lights again and I felt a shock

When you were knocking

When you were knocking
