Pearl

Ten years ago
We were making our plans
To ride into the world
My friend had a kick, snare, tom
Cymbals and van
The color of a pearl

So, we packed up
To leave
The city of our birth
And our family trees
And what a long, lovely road
For you and me

I took some pictures
You took pictures too
But you can't
Fit this in a frame
I tried and you tried
But no one gets it quite right
No one ever gets it quite as right
As your own eyes

So, we packed up
To see
The country you can't find
On books or TVs
And what a long, lovely road
For you and me
