IN TERMS OF LEMONS AND LEMONADE (E A D G B E, capo 2)
In terms of lemons and lemonade. All these things half unfinished.
Sunburn on a hot day. Cool under the shade. Soft warm glow.
Rooted in the earth. Drifting through the sky. Hands in the air touching the stars
In terms of lemon and lemonade. Night and day.
The sun hangs on your neck from a chain.
We buy lemons from the shops and revolve around the block.
All my nails half unbitten.
Peel the skin from the sun. Cut it in half.
Then cut it into quarters. Reach into the sky and squeeze.
All these things half unfinished.
