The time I see is about 80 years ago when the skies were more clear If we dress up and pretend to be free from nocturnity and the phone The garden gave her gifts for all of us to use The girls are beautiful and subtly perfumed With just a hint of booze The heat perpetuates our free and easy ways I wish that I could stay One more day And now the clock has taken back control of our bodies and souls one more time Nostalgia seeps into aquatic thoughts Each memory is wrought from the line The cigarettes have burned, there's nothing left to drink The spilled off hours hearing laughter makes me think This city's on the brink Of changing into an oasis of my own We'll never be alone It's our home
