Wearing clothes you'd throw away
And her hair is knotted too
She sings tangled up in blue
Seems indifferent every time
And when I see her I'm confused
Cause I want her to be my muse
But she's always moving on
Just a second and she's gone
Walking through the pines
Walking through the pines
And she walks different every time
It's just another dawn or sun,
can you see all the beauty
Though I know I look fried,
I'm thinking clean tonight.
And if you will come with me,
if you will come with me,
You will see things differently
And then she takes me by the sleeve
Leads me out among the trees
Where everything smells good
Or the flowers that she finds
This picks them different every time
It's just a dumb love song,
And there we sit by a candlelight
At a wooden table deep in night
And she reads me verse and song
And philosophy's long gone
And she lets me sing sometimes,
she lets me sing sometimes
And when I wake up from my dreams,
I'm alone and then it seems
That she was just pretend,
or she's wandered off again
And I miss her in my mind,
Miss her different every time
It's just another dumb love song,
