lyrics

I took a Sunday drive
all my friends and I
followed you out
to the ocean side
Black ducks in a row
like the washline clothes
one by one we fell behind

a man i didn't recognize
said some words that made us cry
though he was coldly intellectual
then the rain began to fall
a foggy curtain call
umbrellas ineffectual

I took a Sunday ride
out with the tide
flowing out on crests of white
ashes in the sky
mixed with the salt and brine
one by one
we said goodbye

I remembering your face
even time cannot erase
though it's black and white
and faded brown
as you floated out of reach
I heard the preacher preach
that kindred souls are never drowned

I took a Sunday drive
all your friends and I
in onxy cars that seemed to glide
like dashes in a line
that make a clear divide
one by one
we left behind

flowers on the oceans waves
slipping silently away
like the last notes of a song
blue and peridot bouquets
colours never fade
in memory you're never gone
