Out on the tar plains, the glides are moving,
all looking for the new place to drive
You sit beside me, so newly charming,
sweating dew drops glisten, freshening side
And the sun slips 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 climb up in the drifting haze
Swim seagull in the sky towards that hollow
western isle,
my envied lady holds you fast in her gaze
And the sun slips down bedding heavy behind,
the front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time with your
beating heart
And the sun slips down bedding heavy behind,
the front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time with your
beating heart
Sing , blue silver
And watching lovers part, I feel you smiling,what glass splinters lie so deep your mind
To tear out from your eyes with a word to stiffen
brooding lies
But I'll only watch you leave me further behind
And the sun slips down bedding heavy behind,
the front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time with your
beating heart
And the sun slips down bedding heavy behind,
the front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time with your
beating heart
Sing , blue silver
Sing, sing, blue silver
