A DROP IN TIME
BY MERCURY REV
A year is just a drop in time,
It cannot touch th' female form in my bed
She is just a friend of mine,
In th' dark she knows
Th' touch of my hand
Let th' music play as you want it to
Let th' sunshine lite in yr hair
Let th' moonlite play
At your feet like a babe
An' softly linger there
Her words profane, her mouth divine
I tried to sympathize with both sides
But I was caught like a fleeting thought,
Stuck inside of Leonard Cohen's mind
We met on a beach in Greece,
An' parted on a rusty spanish stair
Two birds in th' distance fly,
They land an' they settle down
somewhere
A Year is just a drop in time,
It cannot touch her female form in my head
She was just a friend of mine
In th' dark she knew
Th' touch of my hand
There it is...
