For The Roses

I heard it in the wind last night[00:00:55]

It sounded like applause[00:00:58]

Did you get a round resounding for you[00:01:02]

Way up here[00:01:05]

It seems like many dim years ago[00:01:09]

Since I heard that face to face[00:01:14]

Or seen you face to face[00:01:18]

Though tonight I can feel you here[00:01:21]

I get these notes[00:01:26]

On butterflies and lilac sprays[00:01:31]

From girls who just have to tell me[00:01:33]

They saw you somewhere[00:01:39]

In some office sits a poet[00:01:56]

And he trembles as he sings[00:02:00]

And he asks some guy[00:02:03]

To circulate his soul around[00:02:06]

On your mark red ribbon runner[00:02:11]

The caressing rev of motors[00:02:16]

Finely tuned like fancy women[00:02:20]

In thirties evening gowns[00:02:23]

Up the charts[00:02:29]

Off to the airport-[00:02:31]

Your name's in the news[00:02:32]

Everything's first class-[00:02:35]

The lights go down-[00:02:38]

And it's just you up there[00:02:40]

Getting them to feel like that[00:02:44]

Remember the days when you used to sit[00:03:00]

And make up your tunes for love[00:03:04]

And pour your simple sorrow[00:03:09]

To the soundhole and your knee[00:03:12]

And now you're seen[00:03:16]

On giant screens[00:03:18]

And at parties for the press[00:03:22]

And for people who have slices of you[00:03:26]

From the company[00:03:29]

They toss around your latest golden egg[00:03:34]

Speculation-well who's to know[00:03:39]

If the next one in the nest[00:03:42]

Will glitter for them so[00:03:49]

I guess I seem ungrateful[00:04:07]

With my teeth sunk in the hand[00:04:10]

That brings me things[00:04:15]

I really can't give up just yet[00:04:17]

Now I sit up here[00:04:24]

The critic [00:04:26]

And they introduce some band[00:04:29]

But they seem so much confetti[00:04:35]

Looking at them on my TV set[00:04:38]

Oh the power and the glory[00:04:44]

Just when you're getting a taste for worship[00:04:47]

They start bringing out the hammers[00:04:51]

And the boards[00:04:59]

And the nails[00:05:01]

I heard it in the wind last night[00:05:17]

It sounded like applause[00:05:21]

Chilly now[00:05:26]

End of summer[00:05:27]

No more shiny hot nights[00:05:29]

It was just the arbutus rustling[00:05:35]

And the bumping of the logs[00:05:40]

And the moon swept down black water[00:05:43]

Like an empty spotlight[00:05:52]
