What happened

I'd give you a carpet to lie on
I'd give you a lion to watch
but you came to buy a tiger
you were such a lovely catch

    What happened in the morning ?
    what happened in the night ?
    were you staring at the sky ?
    were you taken by surprise ?

I'd give you this bag as a present
I'd give you this hand to write songs
but you came to look at nature
and you didn't stay too long

     refr.

She'd give me a little red capsule
she'd give me a tiny green pill
and I travelled through the poems
as I wandered in the hills

      refr.

4/2/69. Herat, Afghanistan
