The Rover

Dark of light and the bright of night
Don’t you know girl
I’m so lowdown
No more performer
No more catchy tunes
What is gone is blown again in a song
Dreams of blue on the moon
Jeweled with pearls and stars and the eyes of you
And the leaves to swirl
Don’t you know girl
I’m so lowdown
One more delusion
On more ride in the night
As the curtain of this world falls down
Let the watchers know
Life is a tale told high in books of old
And the wind to hurl
Don’t you know girl
I’m so lowdown
Silent whisperers and laughing vultures way up high
I say goodbye I say goodnight
They call me the rover…
