Dan Bern - My Love is Not For Sale lyrics

My clothes and my windshield wipers and a locket of my hair Everything is for sale My rifle and my boots and my instant coffee maker That poem 'bout the moon over Switzerland My flowers and my walkie-talkie All the liquid in my body I'll set a price and post it to your e-mail But my love, my love is not for sale I could sell my pictures on the streets of Barcelona Women 30 minutes at a time New York City subway, three songs for a dollar Or maybe just a chorus for a dime The newspaper on the street The sky reflecting at my feet It's all been packaged, bottled, drawn to scale But my love, my love is not for sale Take just a minute of your day Tell me one thing that you would live for Dying, dying's easy, getting easier all the time Tell me one thing not to throw it all away for I'll sell you the morning and I'll sell you the night I'll sell you the river and move along I'll sell you the balconies, sell you the sidewalks And all the shuttered windows of Bresson I'll sell you the moon, I'll sell you the stars And the forests with the lonesome wolfhound's wail But my love, my love My love is not for sale
