Cape May - Rogue Valley

The yellow cabs don’t stop

Down Broadway I turn my head to the sidewalk

Use what little money I have in the diner

I didn’t know that I could be so wrong

I can find a few things to blame it on

I looked right through you

And you could only watch me fall

Like rain on a window

In the cold museums

In the sports colosseums

Were you just a bank receipt in my pocket?

The nights were free set my mind wandering

A light that shined only for me

I followed until to legs became weak

South through the city over the bridge

Through turnpikes and tiny roads

Curving through dead meadows

Where spring violets grow

To the wetlands and shore sands

Of Cape May

I looked right through you

And you could only watch me fall

Like rain on a window

Graying greens, blue so deep

The dormant volcanoes sleep

The wind has blown, the moon is full

The birds have flown

Gold on gold on gold on gold on gold
