rows and flows of angel hair and ice cream castles in the air and feather canyons everywhere i ve looked at clouds that way but now they only block the sun they rain and snow on everyone so many things i would have done but clouds got in my way i ve looked at clouds from both sides now from up and down and still somehow it s cloud illusions i recall i really don t know clouds at all and the seasons they go round and round and the painted ponies go up and down we re captive on the carousel of time we can t return we can only look behind from where we came and go round and round and round in the circle game on the back of a cartoon coaster in the blue tv screen light i drew a map of canada oh canada with your face sketched on it twice oh you are in my blood like holy wine you taste so bitter and so sweet oh i could drink a case of you darling and i would still be on my feet i would still be on my feet i m so hard to handle i m selfish and i m sad now i ve gone and lost the best baby that i ever had i wish i had a river i could skate away on i wish i had a river so long i could teach my feet to fly i wish i had a river i could skate away on i could drink a case of you don t it always seem to go yesterday a child came out to wander i really don t know life at all
