The Chauffeur

Out on the tar plains the glides are moving All looking for a new place to drive You sit beside me so newly charming Sweating dewdrops glisten freshing your side And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind The front of your dress all shadowy lined And the droning engine throbs in time With your beating heart Way down the lane away living for another day The aphids swarm up in the drifting haze Swim seagull in the sky towards some hollow western isle My envied lady holds you fast in her gaze Sing Blue Silver And watching lovers part I feel you smiling What glass splinters lie so deep in your mind? To tear out from your eyes with a word to stiffen broodin lies And I'll only watch you leave me further behind Sing Blue Silver Sing, sing Blue Silver
