Red and Teal

When yellow pond lilies are fading to teal One glance, and you'll know The blue that I feel We sit on the bench; we laugh off the time One glance, and I'll know That I'm yours and you're mine When winds blowing backwards are kissing the sky One glance, and you'll learn Who's saying goodbye Should it rain upon our street, for a day maybe two I'll save some for me But what's in it for you? When eyes painted red grow heavy with time One glance, and you'll see If they're yours, if they're mine We laughed every color, all burgundy-blues One glance and I'll see Who'll bloom and who'll bruise Should Marsha and Malcolm once sit on a cloud Oh, I'll vow you the world I will promise out loud Should hands of a woman be turning the wheel I'll find something new Something red, something teal When years, days, and hours are running away One glance, and you'll feel Who'll go and who'll stay I watched a heart wither and die on the vine I stopped and I felt The one that's waiting in line When yellow pond lilies are fading to teal One glance, and you'll know The blue that I feel We sit on the bench, at the crossing of time One glance, and I'll know That I'm yours and you're mine
