The Brave Ones

Spend my days eating peaches in the sand
Ain't no better way
To occupy this tiny space I've been given
Between the sun and the land

Heard the oxen braying
You know, the pretty ones
Who yearn to be a man
I said
Well, it is not half bad

You know
Despite zero defenses from the cold

We'll be the brave ones
And thrive out of earshot of what was

Fell into a depression in your hand
A pilgrim's palmistry
The arc of heart and head and crow's feet aside
I'd never been somebody's ice

Give you little kisses
Until the fishes come
And learn to rule the land
Honey, well it is not that bad

You know
Despite our greatest efforts, we get old

We'll make depraved love
I have a geisha in my lung

We'll be the brave ones
We'll be the brave ones
We'll be the brave ones
We'll be the brave ones
We'll be the brave ones
We'll be the brave ones
We'll be the brave ones
We'll be the brave ones
We'll be the brave ones

Monday come and you shave my head again
That old domestic rite
An orbit and a new babooshka arrive
A century of silence gone by

Little Julia
I'll take you fishing by
The reservoir some time
Your brother, your cousins, some peaches and my

The dream of love will happen in the snow

We'll be the brave ones
We'll be the brave ones
We'll be the brave ones
We'll be the brave ones
