Under the trees where the little lights glow
Lies a girl who rests awhile and easy she never needs to show
That she’s good or kind or give any sort of hint
There’s sweetness and light in her heart and her breath is of mint
The happiness just rolls off and within her in waves
She walks with the sway deep in her hips as side to side she misbehaves
Nothing noted and nothing said but heart a little broken
And she spins out again dancing and singing into the world no one’s token
Gay and glad to be here she smiles and whispers in your ear
But absent whether or not you meant to give the gift and hour of fear
The moment is lost she walks alone into gentle and comforting night
Wrapped tight in the armour of eyes slightly wet but very bright
Echoing in beautiful pretty song thank you good luck good evening you belong
Somewhere else in some other time and this doesn’t feel right it feels wrong
Under the trees where the little lights glow
Away from you somewhere else along the river she’ll flow
