Songtexte

As I circle the picnic table
Eyes watch me in my flowing dress
The sky is an unnatural shade of green
But it's really just the light through the trees
Red and white inviting cookie store in New York City
I took a chocolate photograph
A thirteen-month-old smiling child
Mother ends our conversation
Calls me a lunatic
Dancing in the middle of a crazy diamond
I'm kicking dust into the stagnant air
I am a short stop between here and third
But the traffic never slows
Still I wait
My sister tells a funny situation
She is happy in her thinking
As the phone begins to ring
A big boom fills the room
It is a man who wants my sister all to himself
So I must break the news
She is gay
Laughing in the middle of a crazy diamond
She's kicking dust into the stagnant air
She is a short stop between here and third
But the traffic will never slow
She waves anyway
Each day you make your bed all by yourself
Tossing flowers and names engraved with pencil marks
A constant quirky conversation
Oh, should you change your name
To protect your innocence?
Spinning in the middle of your crazy diamond
I'm kicking dust into your stagnant air
You are a short stop between here and third
But your traffic will never slow
Still I wait
As I circle the picnic table
Your eyes watch me in my flowing dress
The sky is an unnatural shade of grey
But it's really just the light fading from your eyes
Yes, it's really just the light fading, fading
Yes, it's really just the light
