Time is slipping
Ever trickling
Wait for me won't you?
Till your veins turn blue
Wait in winter
When the weather is bitter
Wait in spring
With your promised wedding ring
I'll come in summer
I'll be your evernight lover
We'll kiss under the streetlights
And jump from cliff heights
We'll have picnics with grapes
We'll make love with closed drapes
We'll laugh till our ribs ache
Your back is where my fingers will rake
I'll light up your cigarette
Our love will never end like the reels of a cassette
And we'll play music in your car
I'll be your shooting star
You'll be my moon
My love, I'll see you soon
Time is slipping
Ever trickling
So wait for me won't you?
Till your veins turn blue
