Visions of summer - Lake Odessa
Afloat in the pallid tide
Swam to the shore, refreshed our glasses
And stared at the other side
A peel of clementine
Twirled through gin and streaks of ice
Watched the horizon line
I was out of my mind
Visions of somewhere unrelated
At your place on Riverside
Fitting the framework, learned to savor
Everything all in stride
A peel of clementine
Pressed between your lips when you smiled
It got me every time
You were out of your mind
Visions of something spent together
Of starting another life
Secretly wed beneath the cypress
Danced in the autumn night
A peel of clementine
Boutonniere'd by a sprig of thyme
We barely had a dime
We were out of our minds
Now blowing dandelions
Ballerinas of dust in the sky
Wishing for more time
To be out our minds
Visions of some minute detail
I overlooked at the time
