I thought you were a bluebird that could soar to California, on the summer winds that warmed you in the sky I walked the dirt I came from, you danced softly in the sunlight, I was grounded but I loved to watch you fly I thought you were a mountain standing tall above the tree line, a narrow path so step to reach your heart You blocked the way with boulders and with storms, I had no shelter, you always keep our distance miles apart You have no song to sing to me, no mocking bird on a gentle breeze No melody to frame our last sunset The moon was drowning in the clouds when the darkness let me see somehow You were leaving from the moment that we met I thought you were an actress with a road so many dreamed of, played a part rehearsed so many times You cast me in the story like an extra never worthy, I played the fool and followed all your lines You must be Cinderella with a slipper in a castle, you can look down at the lonely in the field Or maybe you're like Snow White with a different man for each night, so you never have to find something that's real You have no song to sing to me, no mocking bird on a gentle breeze No melody to frame our last sunset The moon was drowning in the clouds when the darkness let me see somehow You were leaving from the moment that we met The moon was drowning in the clouds when the darkness let me see somehow You were leaving from the moment that we met You were leaving from the moment that we met
