Kate & Anna McGarrigle - Fixture in the Park lyrics

This park is my living room This bench is my loveseat Green gra** is my broadloom Lying beneath my feet It takes me back to when I was a girl It was here that I came to My young world A victim in the dark Of love's near fatal spark By the light of the moon Our fervour sustained by the nighthawk's refrain What bliss, what sweet ruin These memories are fixed in time Though faintly gossamer I hope that yours will be like mine And stay with you all your years To take you back to when you were a girl Your first rendezvous in a younger world A fixture in the park Where I stay 'til it's dark Then I go to my room I seldom complain sitting out in the rain God's earth must consume By the light of the moon What bliss, what sweet ruin By the light of the moon What bliss, what sweet ruin By the light of the moon What bliss, what sweet ruin
