1
If I was a boy at sea
2
I would be swinging from a broken tree
3
I would be down on my back looking up at stars at night
4
and if I could get back to reach to reach the saltiest of evergreens
5
You know that I would turn back just to fight the whites of iron eyes
6
When I hear that wind and I think of Spring
7
Underneath an open window a carved out sign and
8
often I would fight with my mind
9
Saltwater brine where you hung your crown
10
When you washed your eyes in last night's tea
11
I thought you might come out from the dream to find that
12
Underneath the pine grew a patch of thyme
13
that I burned for six days in the sun
14
'til I heard the distant sound of drums
15
Oh the queen had come and the King had died
16
and my forehead burned but I closed my eyes
17
and my forehead burned but I closed my eyes
18
Before I go I've got to run, down the street
19
to the market cove where I could
20
find six seeds to bring back to the yard
21
and plant underneath the birch tree
22
No white skies or red sunlight
23
In the saltwater brine
24
My forehead burned but I closed my eyes
25
Whoa. Now you've got to go.
26
If I was a boy
