Heat and moisture make a day
of summer, nothing much to say
watch the people walking by
with the questions in their eyes
dresses lifting in the wind
enough to make you dream up sins
coming up with nice white lies
past the questions in your eyes
and then she's more than what she seemed
and then he's more than what he dreamed
they are figures full of light
their faces shine throughout the night
faces alight
faces alight
Sun in exclamation marks
and couples talking in the park
surely they can have no eyes
for the questions in the sky
life sends riddles through the mail
the answer is just your own tale
then the people walking by
have no questions in their eyes
refr.
1989
