Earth Air Water TreesThrough the shifting colors in the skyI heard the wild geese call. And the liwas bright and clear and cold Over eastern Montreal And although, I know You're only toying with me now, And although, I know You hold your affection for me like a bone on a string I love you, I love you because You gave me sausage and cheese when I was hungry. You hold your closed hand out to me And you told me to guess what you had inside And I had a thousand guesses and some of them were good But I knew for some reason that I was losing my mind When the scent came rising Through the spaces between your fingers When the scent called to me And I know we'd last at least until the end of december I love you, I love you because You gave me sausage and cheese when I was hungry |
