I saw rainbows
And you saw rain
We danced between them
'Til they became one in the same
I saw the garden
You saw the tree
I bit the apple, you bit me
And in those old times
How we would lay
I saw a fire
You saw the sun at breaking day
I chose the embers
You chose the stars
You got a sunburn, I got charred
Pain in looking back is just a heartbreak fever
I saw soldiers all attack
Upon love's lone unbelievers
We watched missiles in the sky
I saw a war
You saw the Fourth of July
And in every corner now, in every room
I see your ghost still
And every bud opon its bloom
I'm thinking life is but a guessing game of cards
Unmarked, and shuffled in doom
And in the whistling of every mouth
I hear a melody with spring and buds
And summertime down South
I see the forest
Oh, I see the sea inside your eyes, you just see me
And death came so swiftly upon our grace
No one could lift me from the fire of your face
I saw a family, you saw a chain
I cupped my hands and drank rain
And I sang come out all ye sinners
And all those sinners came
I saw Demeter in the distance, dancing joyous in the rain
I saw the back end of a train to California
You left home, and I remained
And now the ink is on the page
And all those moments far away
Two sailing strangers in the ocean, drifting farther fron the bay
I saw the garden
I saw the garden
