The only girl I've ever loved
Was born with roses in her eyes
But then they buried her alive
One evening in nineteen-forty-five
With just her sister at her side
And only weeks before the guns
All came and rained on every one
Now she's a little boy in Spain
Playing pianos filled with flames
On empty rings around the sun
I'll sing to say my dream has come
And now we ride the circus wheel
With your dark brother wrapped in white
Says it was good to be alive
But now he rides a comet's flame
And won't be coming back again
The Earth looks better from a star
That's right above from where you are
He didn't mean to make you cry
With sparks that ring and bullets fly
On empty rings around your heart
The world just screams and falls apart
And here is the room where your
Indentantions in the sheets
Where their bodies once moved but don't
And it's so sad to see the world agree
That they'd rather see their
All when I'd want to keep white
